Intelligence Isn't Just Discovered
It Is Synthesized
The Synthetix Institute is a decentralized organization using AI to synthesize knowledge, generate novel discoveries, and orchestrate global talent to solve humanity's most complex challenges.
Evolving Science from Static Institutions to Living Systems
"Centralized institutions and siloed knowledge hinder the speed and scope of discovery. The challenges we face—from sustainable ecosystems to the physical basis of cognition—demand a more agile, open, and interconnected approach."
"We are built on the principles of Decentralized Science (DeSci). Our institute has no walls. We are a fluid network of talent, tools, and data, orchestrated by AI to tackle missions that are impossible for any single entity to solve alone."
Nature Designs Through Evolution. We Synthesize.
AI-Orchestrated Assembly
Our AI Core assembles a bespoke "virtual lab" for every mission, finding the optimal path through a global network of distributed experts and resources, ensuring every project begins with a coherent and unified team.
From Scattered Data to Unified Models
The AI synthesizes disconnected knowledge into a unified, computationally tractable model. It does not just find information; it reveals the deep, non-obvious connections between fields, generating a novel and testable hypothesis.
Generating an Executable Protocol
An idea becomes powerful when it is executable. The final step is to generate a formal research protocol that can be broadcast to our Global Forge network, enabling parallelized testing and turning the hypothesis into tangible artifacts and verifiable data.
Investigating Intelligence Across Scales
Our research reveals a unifying theme: intelligence emerges through network rewiring at every scale. From the substrate to the collective, we study and synthesize these patterns.
Material Intelligence
Architecting intelligence from the bottom up by designing novel physical matter. We embed cognitive capabilities directly into materials, creating networks built into the substrate itself—matter that can learn, remember, and adapt.
Biological Intelligence
Our mission is to move from reactive to proactive intervention by designing synthetic biological signals, such as personalized mRNA vaccine candidates, to tune the adaptive network of the immune system for optimal resilience.
Ecological Intelligence
This mission applies our AI to synthesize disparate environmental data into a single, cohesive model, performing forensic evaluations of ecosystems to predict tipping points and inform bioregional strategies.
Collective Intelligence
Beyond analyzing other systems, our framework enhances human collaboration. We use AI to coordinate decentralized networks of people, turning their individual expertise into a coherent, problem-solving collective.
