Mechanistic evidence services

We package biomedical research expertise into focused, scoped engagements for foundations, non-profits, biotechs, and rare-disease funds. Led by an epidemiologist and data scientist — from variant reports and cohort analyses to grant writing, RFP review, and scientific strategy advisory. Each engagement also calibrates the Artana Evidence platform.

Scoped data-science projects

For foundations and non-profits. Epidemiology, cohort analyses, evidence synthesis, registry design, and decision-grade reports — sized to the question, not to a retainer.

Grant writing and review

NIH, NSF, foundation, and venture-philanthropy proposals. Drafting, scientific framing, and independent peer review against the funder’s rubric.

RFP review

Structured technical and scientific review of submitted proposals for foundation and non-profit funding rounds. Alignment scoring against funding-call criteria, conflict-of-interest handling, and reviewer notes ready for the committee.

Scientific strategy advisory

Translational roadmaps, biobank design, basket-trial rationale, and mechanism-grouped portfolio framing for foundations and early-stage biotechs. The shape of the program before the spend.

Mechanistic variant reports

Patient foundations and academic labs. Variant-level mechanism, structural context, and cross-species evidence assembled into a decision-ready report.

Cohort analysis + basket-trial rationale

Biotech and pharma R&D. Mechanism-defined patient cohorts across diseases, with the supporting evidence FDA basket-trial submissions require.

Mechanistic diligence

Rare disease funds. Independent assessment of the mechanistic basis behind a target, asset, or company. Pre-investment or pre-partnership.

Each engagement generates evidence that trains the platform. That’s the compounding asset that distinguishes us from a consulting firm.
