At a fraction of the cost.<\/h2>\n\n<p>There are now nearly eight billion people on the planet for whom necessary food resources grow scarcer and more expensive daily. Aviwell has developed a unique disruptive scientific approach and a multifaceted AI-driven Microbiome Discovery Platform that can discover and develop healthy, natural solutions that orient and<\/p>\n\n<strong>improve animal growth such that the agri-food industry can more sustainably feed the planet. And using its novel processes, Aviwell can commercialize its solutions at a fraction of today\u2019s costs.<\/strong>\n\n<p>Aviwell uses proprietary data processing tools and algorithms to identify and naturally adapt intestinal microbiota to control the growth of farm animals in response to market requirements.\r\n\r\nAs<\/p>\n\n<strong> Mouli Ramani, CEO of Aviwell<\/strong>\n\n<p>, explained: \u201c<\/p>\n\n<em>We have already successfully tested our patented processes on geese to produce \u201cfoie naturellement gras\u201d without resorting to force-feeding. We now want to move things up a gear and apply the insights from our Microbiome Discovery Platform to other species such as chickens and pigs, which we eat on a far larger scale than foie gras.<\/em>\n\n<p>\u201d<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TWB: helping Aviwell achieve great things<\/h2>\n\n<p>With its cutting-edge infrastructure and expertise, TWB provides access to the key equipment, facilities and resources that Aviwell needs to succeed.\r\n\r\n&quot;<\/p>\n\n<em>As a scientist, I couldn\u2019t have hoped for a better microbiota isolation and identification platform than that provided by TWB<\/em>\n\n<p>,\u201d said<\/p>\n\n<strong>R\u00e9my Burcelin, Principal Founder Aviwell<\/strong>\n\n<p>. \u201c<\/p>\n\n<em>TWB allows us to fully develop our disruptive scientific strategy, the production scale-up capacities and the support from the on-site teams and the vicinity of other talented and highly motivated biotechs are also invaluable.
