## 💡 Brown Biotech Insights

- *peptide-service:* GLP-1 in CNS opens a new indication — broadens compliant CDMO scope beyond weight-loss.
- *biostatx:* On-device LFM2.5 + YC F26 agent37 align with biostatx local-first biotech-agent thesis.
- *genox-site:* Code-≠-software finding reinforces evidence-quality thesis over volume.
- *business-pipeline:* 5× agent-infra 4/8 items (LFM2.5, Muse Spark, Agent37, more code, Self-Evolving) = local infra shift.
- Reddit ML/bio blocked → HN Algolia 7d biotech + GeekNews 4 AI/agent items as replacement.

## 🎯 Next Action

Draft a 1-page note on GLP-1 CNS opportunity for the peptide-service team (include Bloomberg + emerging indication pipeline).
