UK-based Basecamp Research has raised $140 million to build one of the world's largest maps of global biodiversity for drug discovery. The company trains AI on genetic data from unexplored organisms to help design new therapies. Observers note the funding scales up its work, but questions remain over proving safety in humans and ensuring fair benefit-sharing with countries that supply genetic material.
