Frontier Computing

growing brain systems that learn

Visit Frontier Computing

Frontier Computing is a biocomputing company based in Cambridge, UK, developing large-scale neuronal tissue as a hardware layer for biocomputing. The company addresses the vascularisation problem in biological neural tissue, where cells beyond a geometric limit sit too far from an oxygen supply and die. Its tissue-culture approach is intended to enable larger biological neural nets than would traditionally be reasonable for GPU-based training, with continual learning built into the substrate and a training platform positioned as an abstraction layer above backprop.

The company provides the substrate, interfacing, and cloud infrastructure for third parties to train on its systems. It is backed by Y Combinator (S26) and is hiring across neurobiology, electrophysiology, electrical engineering, and reinforcement learning. The company is based in Cambridge, UK.
