CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Jan. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LabCentral, in partnership with C10 Labs, today announced the opening of applications for the Spring 2026 cohort of the AI BioHub accelerator program, which will begin in March and conclude in early June.
This in-depth program, which begins on March 19, 2026, supports early-stage TechBio ventures working at the intersection of artificial intelligence and life sciences. It features ten weeks of AI-specific and biotech industry curriculum, access to both wet lab and office space, fractional AI expert support, and an extensive network of industry mentors and advisors. Applications are now open and available here and close on Monday, March 9.
This is the second of two cohort programs made possible by a $1.9 Million Sector Spark Grant from the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative, awarded in 2025. As part of that grant, LabCentral built a dedicated AI BioHub lab, featuring next-generation laboratory equipment, and, in partnership with C10 Labs, conducted the initial AI BioHub accelerator program, which concluded in September of 2025.
“AI is driving numerous groundbreaking innovations, but getting therapies to patients faster is one if its greatest promises,” said LabCentral President & CEO, Maggie O’Toole. “This visionary Sector Spark grant gives Massachusetts the opportunity to support early-stage entrepreneurs leveraging AI to advance their science more quickly and demonstrates the deep commitment to supporting this critical work.”
