Our take
The discovery of new drugs is essential for medical innovations, but the process is lengthy, high-risk, and expensive. This is due to manual research and analysis processes that are prone to human error and time-consuming workflows, raising the question as to whether AI could reduce these pitfalls.
Rather than bolting machine learning onto the existing drug discovery process, Isomorphic Labs is reimagining everything from first principles with an AI-first approach, leveraging machine learning to build predictive and generative models of biological phenomena to understand how novel drugs could perform. And the company differentiates itself from other AI-driven drug discovery startups by being a direct subsidiary of Alphabet, with access to resources, computing power, and partnerships with teams within DeepMind.
Now, the company is gearing up for its biggest leap yet - testing its AI-designed medicines on real people. After years of development, big-name partnerships, and a $600M funding round, Isomorphic says human clinical trials are finally within reach. In its London offices, scientists and AI are already teaming up to design potential treatments for diseases like cancer. The next step is putting those drugs to the test.

Company benefits
- Hybrid working: It’s hugely important for us to share knowledge and build strong relationships with each other, and we find it easier to do this if we spend time together in person. This is why we follow a hybrid model, and would require you to be able to come into the office 3 days a week (currently Tuesday, Wednesday, and one other day depending on which team you’re in). If you have additional needs that would prevent you from following this hybrid approach, we’d be happy to talk through these if you’re selected for an initial screening call
Company values
- Thoughtful: Thoughtful at Iso is about curiosity, creativity and care. It is about good people doing good, rigorous and future-making science every single day
- Brave: Brave at Iso is about fearlessness, but it’s also about initiative and integrity. The scale of the challenge demands nothing less
- Determined: Determined at Iso is the way we pursue our goal. It’s a confidence in our hypothesis, as well as the urgency and agility needed to deliver on it. Because disease won’t wait, so neither should we
- Together: Together at Iso is about connection, collaboration across fields and catalytic relationships. It’s knowing that transformation is a group project, and remembering that what we’re doing will have a real impact on real people everywhere
