ABOUT THE COMPANY
Fetch Bioscience is building a new kind of search engine for scientific researchers. Instead of limiting searches to keywords or authors, Fetch allows scientists to search for relevant research based on the meaning of their own experimental protocols. Using this protocol-centric approach, Fetch saves researchers time and money, accelerating scientific discovery. Commercial labs can also connect their existing documentation and data to Fetch, drastically improving the discoverability of internal documents. By adopting Fetch, companies can increase the pace of research throughout their R&D and production pipelines
GROWING HOPE PROJECT
The Growing Hope Project is a collaboration between San Bernardino City Unified School District, San Andreas High School, Technical Employment Training, Inc. and Night Owl Bay.
