Roots that scientists read

Science naming leans on Greek and Latin because those roots travel across languages. onkro.com carries the sound of onco-, acyta.com the root cyto- for cells and romyc.com the myc of mycology and mycelium. kemeg.com joins chemistry with mega. vasod.com opens with vaso-, for blood vessels, and osgel.com with os, Latin for bone and mouth.

Names like these sound credible to reviewers, grant panels and investors, and they leave the company free to move between indications as its pipeline changes.

From the lab to the field

Plenty of science happens outside the hospital. sedbe.com is seedbed pressed into five letters, a fit for agritech, plant breeding and seed banks. rerch.com is research said in one breath, for lab software and research tools. ceury.com carries century, a name with the long patience drug development and materials science ask for, and ilzor.com has force in it, from the Persian zor, for sports science and nutrition.

Questions

Why do biotech companies use Greek and Latin roots?

Those roots are shared by scientists in every country, so a name built on cyto-, onco- or myc- is understood in Boston, Basel and Tokyo alike. They also tell investors which field the company works in at a glance.

Can one of these names be used for a product rather than the company?

Yes. Many biotech companies keep a company name and give each platform or product its own brand. A short .com works for either, and you can point it at a product page from the first day.
