Gamow Labs

Gamow Labs is a US startup based in Colorado, founded in 2026, building AI-native agent systems that interpret the human genome. Its software turns whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data and patient phenotype into clinical diagnoses, focusing on rare disease and neonatal (NICU) cases where sequencing data exists but interpretation capacity is the bottleneck. The company runs a robotic wet lab in Boulder and publishes benchmarks that evaluate AI models and agents (RareBench, LabBench). It was founded by Daniel D. McKinnon and Ward Bradt, and raised a US$3.5M seed round in August 2026. The name references the physicist and cosmologist George Gamow.
