Watchmaker Genomics Licenses CRISPR-Cas9 Intellectual Property from Caribou Biosciences to Increase Throughput and Reduce Sequencing Cost per Sample17.2.2026 14:00:00 CET | Press release
Watchmaker Genomics, an innovator in high-performance solutions for next-generation sequencing (NGS), today announced a non-exclusive license with Caribou Biosciences, Inc., a leading clinical-stage CRISPR genome-editing biopharmaceutical company, for certain foundational CRISPR-Cas9 intellectual property for use in NGS library preparation. While CRISPR-Cas9 technologies are most commonly associated with their unique ability to find and cut for genome editing, Watchmaker is leveraging it in a fundamentally different way: as a programmable, stoichiometric binding tool to address one of the most persistent and under-optimized steps in NGS workflows – library normalization. “Normalization has quietly become a bottleneck as sequencing throughput has scaled,” said Brian Kudlow, CSO and Founderat Watchmaker Genomics. “This license gives us the freedom to rethink normalization from first principles, using CRISPR-Cas9 in a way that’s orthogonal to editing but highly aligned with modern sequenc
