Optimizing Data Outputs from the SIMBA GI Health Platform
Agreement Number:

Agreement Value:
$560,000.00
Agreement Date:
Oct 1, 2023 - Dec 31, 2025
Description:
Nimble Science has developed and launched a first-in-kind sampling platform to collect novel datasets from the small intestinal microbiome. Nimble's SIMBA GI Health Platform provides easy at-home access to novel multi-omics data directly from the small intestine. The platform is leveraged by our innovative Small Intestinal Microbiome Aspiration Capsule, SIMBA, which collects a fluid biopsy targeted to the deepest and most out-of-reach regions of the gut and clinically validated to be comparable to endoscopy. Actionable intelligence is then powered by the Nimble SIMO database, which enables the correlation of spatial and temporal aspects against a broad cohort of small intestinal data to identify novel diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers.
