A cancer diagnosis is something no one wants to hear. Today, it is often detected late, once it has spread and treatment options are often limited. But cancer is curable if caught in the earlier stages. At Thrive Earlier Detection, our goal is to transform this outlook: to catch cancer earlier, when it can be more effectively treated. We are developing CancerSEEK, a blood-based test that is designed to be affordable and utilized as part of routine medical care to detect multiple types of cancer at earlier stages. Our approach goes beyond a cancer diagnosis. We are developing a platform that will serve as a resource to help patients and their families maneuver the often confusing and overwhelming path that follows a cancer diagnosis.
Mango Materials produces biodegradable plastics from waste biogas (methane) that are economically competitive with conventional, oil-based plastics. Mango Materials produces poly-hydroxyalkanoate (PHA) powder, a valuable biopolymer that is converted into a variety of ecofriendly, plastic products such as children’s toys, electronic casings, water bottles, and food packaging containers. Due to a rising preference for green products, demand for biodegradable and non petroleum-based plastics is growing rapidly. Mango Materials uses affordable methane gas and a process that competes favorably with petroleum-based plastics to produce low-cost, biodegradable plastics.
