This seems like something western militaries might be interested in buying to defend against bioweapons. You might be able to use Anduril as a middle-man and maybe bag yourself a couple million dollars to fund your work? I think I know someone who could introduce you to their CEO. DM me if you’re interested!
We have been talking to people in the defense space, and this is something they’ve publicly expressed interest in. For example, in January the US Defense Innovation Unit put out a solicitation in this direction:
… The system must provide the capability to monitor known threats as well as new variants and unknown pathogens via untargeted methods (e.g., shotgun metagenomic and metatranscriptomic sequencing). Companies are encouraged to identify and characterize evidence of genetic engineering. …
We applied, but were not selected. I think they were looking for something more developed. But we’re continuing to talk to people!
