Early Warning Systems for Pathogens.
Because Biology Doesn’t Respect Borders.

Biology can be unpredictable, but robust biosecurity infrastructure can provide accessible and scalable national security solutions to mitigate risks. Concentric by Ginkgo is installing key collection points throughout a global pathogen monitoring network.

These nodes enable national security decision makers to identify biological threats before they become emergencies. In addition, our bioinformatics services deliver insights on pathogens of interest, as well as offer the ability to detect evolutions and shifts in variants.

How can we help you?

Travel, Aircraft, and Points of Entry

Travel, Aircraft, and Points of Entry

  • Travel propels and accelerates the spread of pathogens. Airports and other points of entry play a crucial role as early warning systems for biological threats, locally and globally. These collection nodes represent mission-critical global infrastructure, contributing to our growing bioradar network.

Epidemiology & Risk Modeling

Epidemiology & Risk Modeling

  • Our global network of data nodes provides alerts for pathogen movement and the emergence of variants around the world. Ginkgo’s complex epidemiological risk models also use this data, together with artificial intelligence, to provide models of where and when threats may appear.

Research & Development

Research & Development

  • We’ve deployed multiple pathogen surveillance in airports, and our capabilities are expanding as threats evolve. Our systems can detect any pathogens of interest, including MERS, cholera, hemorrhagic fevers, and various infectious respiratory pathogens. Deployment on oil rigs, ports, and border facilities are all in active development. The most valuable solutions have come from our closest partnerships and new methods are emerging in real time.
