28bio Announces Nexon™ Neurotechnology Platform Powered by Engineered Human Brains

Exhibits complex neurological processes—including memory, learning, and cognition—and predicts human outcomes in preclinical drug development NEW ORLEANS, June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- 28bio today announced the Nexon™ neurotechnology platform—a major advancement in understanding human brain function. The platform integrates tissue engineering, neural interfacing and AI to engineer human brains at-scale and replicate complex neurological processes. The Nexon™ platform is now being used to improve the prediction of therapeutic efficacy and toxicity in humans, with several of the world's largest pharma companies already integrating Nexon™ into their drug development workflows. The Nexon™ platform also incorporates Organoid Intelligence (OI). The growing field of OI combines human brain organoids with brain-machine interfaces to model memory, learning, and cognition in vitro, offering novel functional cognitive biomarkers with the potential to reshape drug development in neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer's disease. Neurological drug development faces some of the highest failure rates in the pharmaceutical industry, due to poor translatability of animal models. Despite promising preclinical study results, many therapies ultimately fail in humans—contributing to a growing neurological health crisis and need for more predictive, human-relevant models. "We engineer human brains capable of elucidating the complexity of neurological processes and produce predictive data needed to change the trajectory of neurological drug development," said Alif Saleh, CEO of 28bio. "Industry and regulators are urgently asking for solutions to develop better neurological drugs faster and cheaper." About 28bio28bio is a neurotechnology company engineering human brains at-scale exhibiting memory, learning, and cognitive functions. Its Nexon™ platform integrates tissue engineering, neural interfacing, and AI to reverse today's neurological health crisis by improving the ability to predict which therapies will work in humans. 28bio is committed to advancing ethical standards in the development of brain organoid technology and engineered human cognition.

Across the Pacific: Palauan Voyagers Renew Austronesian Bonds in Taitung

TAITUNG, June 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Taitung County Government invited the Palauan-led multinational crew of the traditional sailing canoe Alingano Maisu, which brought together sailors from across the greater Micronesia region and Taiwan. The crew has recently completed a remarkable cultural voyage from Palau to Taitung, Taiwan, as part of a broader Austronesian exchange. With their return voyage now underway, the journey served not only as a reaffirmation of shared heritage but also as a fresh chapter in the living story of oceanic kinship. The crew was welcomed with a traditional ceremony led by the Dulan Youth Group, featuring ceremonial chants and protective dance performances—an expression of ancestral ties and mutual respect among Austronesian peoples. At the Taitung County Government Hall, a Voyaging Culture Sharing Forum was held, where the navigators shared their experiences crossing the Pacific and their traditional knowledge of celestial navigation. In return, local boatbuilders engaged in dialogue, sharing insights into their own seafaring culture and strengthening a shared reverence for the ocean. During their stay, the guest voyagers visited several Indigenous communities along Taiwan's eastern coast. In the Amis community of Duli, they took part in hands-on workshops exploring traditional cigarette rolling, fishing techniques, and even rice wine brewing—experiences that offered a deeper appreciation of Indigenous craftsmanship and knowledge passed down through generations. The journey also included a scenic ride on the antique "Breezy Blue" express train, which hugs the coastline between Taitung and Jinlun. This allowed the visitors to soak in the spectacular sea-and-sky vistas, through open windows, and gain further insight into the region's history and lifestyle. Cultural exchange extended to the table as well. Besides enjoying meticulously prepared Indigenous meals, the crew also experienced Taiwan's signature hotpot culture. Sitting around the steaming pot, guests and hosts shared stories, laughter, and flavors—reminding all that food is one of the most powerful ways to build bridges between islands. Local Amis hosts presented the voyagers with betel nuts, hand-carved wooden badges, and even ukuleles—symbols of friendship and cultural pride. The crew also participated in the opening of the Kavulungan Cultural Park, a major cultural event celebrating the traditions of the Paiwan people. The visit concluded with a joyful farewell banquet filled with music, dance, and heartfelt connection—bringing the entire journey full circle. Through this voyage centered on voyaging culture, traditional maritime skills were not only honored but reawakened. As the Palauan canoe sets sail homeward, the enduring spirit of Austronesian solidarity continues to ripple across the Pacific, reminding us all of the powerful stories carried by wind, waves, and kinship.

This dual emphasis on sector innovation and regional opportunity positioned BEYOND Expo as one of the most prominent and impactful pan-Asian tech gatherings ever held. BEYOND Expo Co-Founder Dr. LU Gang said, "This year there has been a tremendous energy around BEYOND Expo, fueled by Asia's rapid rise in frontier technologies and a greater desire for inter-Asian collaboration and cooperation. The products and solutions on display demonstrate just how much AI is transforming so many aspects of our lives, from the food we eat and the clothes we wear to how we interact with each other. Our ecosystem partners, including media, investors, incubators, and suppliers, are driving this momentum and nurturing next-generation technologies."
