Isaac Bentwich

Founder & CEO at Quris

Isaac is the Founder and CEO of Quris. Prior to Quris, Isaac founded and led three bio-AI technology companies, each of which led revolutions in medicine, genomics, agriculture and conservation. Isaac is a physician and entrepreneur with a passion for leading interdisciplinary teams of scientists and technologists to tackle impactful challenges in the intersection between machine-learning and life-sciences; and to leverage and commercialize the resulting solutions. One of the companies that he founded was Rosetta Genomics (NASDAQ:ROSG), which analyzed the human genome. Isaac led the team at Rosetta Genomics in the discovery of hundreds of novel genes, more so than all the universities in the world combined, and delivered novel cancer diagnostics based on these genes. Its subsidiary, Rosetta Green (TASE:RSTG), was acquired by Monsanto for $35M. Under Isaac’s leadership, team members at Rosetta went on to lead artificial intelligence at IBM, Google and Microsoft. Now, at Quris, Isaac and his team are using a similar bio-AI approach to disrupt the drug development process.
