NemaLife: Funding, Investors & Team (Oct 2026)

NemaLife's mission is to accelerate and de-risk R&D for companies in the food, nutraceutical, microbiome and pharma industries. In these industries, performing human-relevant high throughput biology and doing so with efficiency and speed has been a mutually exclusive affair. NemaLife has solved this major challenge by developing an AI-assisted microfluidics-based in vivo platform based on the microscopic worm C. elegans that has strong relevance for human biology. This 3R-compliant cruelty-free technology capable of testing a variety of compounds and their combinations is an alternative to expensive and time-consuming mouse models. We work with companies as their R&D partner, accelerating the value-chain from early-phase discovery to assessment of product potency and health claims. Our interdisciplinary team of engineers and biologists work with you to achieve your R&D objectives as well as co-create assets by developing custom biological readouts and new tech platforms. We have significant pre-clinical expertise in human wellness areas related to gut health, brain health, muscle health, metabolic health, cognitive health and healthy aging. We would be happy to share more details in a 15 min call.

About FundedIQ's NemaLife Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for NemaLife is left off this page rather than filled in.
