Firefly Neuroscience Congratulates Scientific Advisor, Dr. Christopher Wilson, Recipient of Prestigious UW Faculty of Engineering Award for Work on Superconducting Quantum Electronics
07 Février 2025 - 1:30PM
Firefly Neuroscience, Inc. (“Firefly” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:
AIFF), an Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) company developing
innovative solutions that improve brain health outcomes for
patients with neurological and mental disorders, is pleased to
congratulate Christopher Wilson, PhD, on being recognized by the
University of Waterloo’s (“UW”) Faculty of Engineering for his
significant contributions to research and scholarship. The award
recognizes Dr. Wilson’s research at the Institute for Quantum
Computing (“IQC”) at UW.
Dr. Wilson’s work explores the use of superconducting quantum
electronics for both applications and basic science. His research
brings together start-ups, academia and defense sectors in Canada
and internationally, and he has secured $13 million in research
funding from agencies in Canada, the U.S. and Europe since the
start of his career.
Dr. Wilson has supervised more than 40 research associates,
postdoctoral fellows, PhD students, master’s and undergraduate
students, whom he involves in international collaborations. Among
his more than 100 refereed publications, 30 high-impact
publications have students or postdocs as first authors. His new
textbook, Building Quantum Computers, was published by Cambridge
University Press in 2024. It was co-authored by IQC past Executive
Director, Raymond Laflamme, and IQC PhD Student, Shayan Majady, and
is based on their courses on quantum information processing taught
at IQC.
Greg Lipschitz, Executive Chairman of Firefly, said, “On behalf
of everyone here, I would like to extend my sincere congratulations
to Dr. Wilson on this amazing achievement. In addition to his
outstanding contributions to the advancement of quantum science and
technology, Dr. Wilson is a vital member of Firefly’s Advisory
Development Board. Most recently, he has been collaborating on an
exciting new brain model initiative. We are looking forward to
providing more information on that in the near future.”
About FireflyFirefly (NASDAQ: AIFF) is an
Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) company developing innovative
solutions that improve brain health outcomes for patients with
neurological and mental disorders. Firefly’s FDA-510(k) cleared
Brain Network Analytics (BNA™) technology revolutionizes diagnostic
and treatment monitoring methods for conditions such as depression,
dementia, anxiety disorders, concussions, and ADHD. Over the past
15 years, Firefly has built a comprehensive database of brain wave
tests, securing patent protection, and achieving FDA clearance. The
Company is now launching BNA™ commercially, targeting
pharmaceutical companies engaged in drug research and clinical
trials, as well as medical practitioners for clinical use.
Brain Network Analytics was developed using artificial
intelligence and machine learning on Firefly’s extensive
proprietary database of standardized, high-definition longitudinal
electroencephalograms (EEGs) of over 17,000 patients representing
twelve disorders, as well as clinically normal patients. BNA™, in
conjunction with an FDA-cleared EEG system, can provide clinicians
with comprehensive insights into brain function. These insights can
enhance a clinician’s ability to accurately diagnose mental and
cognitive disorders and to evaluate what therapy and/or drug is
best suited to optimize a patient’s outcome.
