Cell Design Labs, a biotherapeutics company pioneering breakthrough science to develop disruptive cell-based therapies for cancer and other devastating diseases, has been a part of QB3 since March 2016. Based on innovative research from Dr. Wendell Lim's lab at UCSF, Cell Design Labs leverages the power of the body’s immune system to develop smart, living therapies with the potential to treat our most challenging diseases with unprecedented power, precision, safety and durability. While at QB3@953, Cell Design Labs grew from 3 to 20, raised $34M, and established a large partnership with Kite - not bad in a year. Now they have moved on to the East Bay.
