Support the Future of Peptide DesignSupporttheFutureofPeptideDesign

Peptides—short chains of amino acids—hold enormous potential to address challenges across medicine, biotechnology, sustainability, materials, and beyond. At the Center for Peptide Design at the University of Pennsylvania, we combine AI, chemistry, and high-throughput experiments to understand these versatile molecules and engineer them for new purposes.

Your philanthropic support helps us pursue bold scientific questions, develop new technologies, and train the next generation of interdisciplinary scientists and engineers. From discovering potential therapeutics to exploring applications in sustainable materials, environmental protection, and energy, your gift gives us the freedom to advance promising ideas and open new directions for research.

Together, we can expand what peptides can do and translate discovery into lasting benefits for people and the planet.
