There is no step-by-step guide for building a deep tech company, but sharing lessons learned can make the journey clearer for everyone. 💡

This week at #EdmontonStartupWeek, our Co-Founder & CTO, Dr. John P. Davis, took the stage at @EdmontonUnltd for the "Building Deep Tech Companies" panel.

Alongside fellow founders and ecosystem leaders, Dr. Ryan Tucker of @G2VOptics and Jalene Anderson-Baron of @futurefieldsHQ, John shared real-world insights on what it takes to bring breakthrough research out of the lab and scale a deep-tech company from right here in Alberta. A big thank you to moderator Tiffany Linke-Boyko of @flyingfishvc!

Events like this create valuable spaces for founders, innovators, and big thinkers to come together, exchange wisdom, and empower the next generation of entrepreneurs.🔬

Say hello to our Sustainability Committee! 🌎🧪 This crew is always finding new ways to cut waste, optimize the lab, and keep daily operations sustainable. 

Check out how we put sustainability first 👉 https://t.co/pmps9WC1a6

[Future Fields @futurefieldsHQ]

Expressing complex diagnostic targets shouldn’t stall due to improper folding, low yields, or scaling costs. 

The EntoEngine® solves these problems by delivering native-like, complex diagnostic assets at scale without traditional bottlenecks. 👉 https://t.co/7ZVLG5i6Lp

That’s a wrap on Sustain Labs: Beyond the Bench!

We couldn't have asked for a better crowd! A big thank you to our moderator and panelists for sharing their honest experiences with us.
We’re excited to keep driving sustainability forward together! 🚀 💚

[Future Fields @futurefieldsHQ]

Struggling with low expression of complex diagnostic targets?

Training the fly to play Mario 64? 🎮 Doomscrolling online? 🤳 Launching a memecoin? 🪙 We love to see it.

See how the community is using the open-source 'flybody' + MaleCNS v1.0 fly connectome to flex the immense intricacy of the fruit fly 👇

[Google AI @GoogleAI]

Oh, so this is why we mapped out all 166,000 of the male fruit fly's neurons. Check out the big community effort to show just how much these tiny fly brains are capable of 🪰🧵

[HHMI @hhmi_science]

(1/2) When Janelia set out to map every neuron in the fly brain in 2008, many thought it couldn’t be done. Nearly 20 years later, a complete wiring diagram of the 166,000+ neurons of the adult male fruit fly is helping to reveal the brain’s secrets: https://t.co/Qr96Qmb1RG.

[Future Fields @futurefieldsHQ]

The brilliance of the #fruitfly on display. 😍

Our EntoEngine uses fruit flies as the host for protein expression. We're thrilled that the world is leaning into why the fly is THE model organism in science. 🪰

[News from Google @NewsFromGoogle]

For the first time, scientists have mapped the complete brain and central nervous system of an adult male fruit fly — a key model organism in science. 🪰

Working alongside HHMI Janelia Research Campus and the scientific community, @GoogleResearch scientists and researchers used AI to combine millions of 2D images into 3D neural shapes, reconstructing a record-breaking 166,000+ neurons. This foundational map of the adult male fruit fly brain can help accelerate our understanding of the brain, and is a major milestone in neuroscience.
