Our Story

Tag.bio was founded on the belief that innovation is a function of human curiosity. This manifests in a desire to ask questions of data, and the greater the number of questions that can be answered, the greater the chances of making the next fundamental breakthrough.

Spinning off from the UCSF Cancer Center, Tom Covington and Jesse Paquette started Tag.bio to develop a platform to allow oncology researchers to quickly ask and answer guided questions of their data without having to wait for a bioinformatician. We’ve since expanded into commercial and academic partnerships across the life sciences sector, from leading academic institutions to large pharmaceutical organizations.
