CEO / Co-Founder / Board Member

Chris Norn co-founded Skape Bio with Nobel Prize winner David Baker to advance GPCR therapeutics with AI-designed biologics. He helped raise $9M to build and validate the company’s platform. Previously in the Baker Lab, Chris helped pioneer AI-driven protein design, contributing to breakthroughs including AI-designed enzymes, self-assembling nanoparticles, and the first de novo designed GPCR-activating biologic. His work focuses on translating computational design into practical medicines by creating precise, programmable proteins that modulate GPCR signaling, and Skape Bio is actively exploring platform partnerships with biopharma.
