Congratulations to Gary Wilson, CEO, and the forward-thinking team at AMCYT, INC, on securing a $50,000 Business Catalyst Grant from El Dorado County. This grant acknowledges their innovative contributions to the biotech field, especially through the development of their flagship product, ROSE (Rapid Onsite Evaluation). With the collaboration of Sacramento Product Development, AMCYT, INC has successfully developed ROSE, a groundbreaking adequacy procedure that significantly reduces sampling errors during fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies. This method involves the immediate smearing of a tissue sample onto a glass slide, followed by staining and real-time microscopic evaluation. ROSE not only enhances the sensitivity and diagnostic yield of FNA biopsies but also facilitates further diagnostic triage by determining the necessity for additional samples and the best methods for preserving material for further analysis. Additionally, it minimizes the need for repeat sampling and decreases the risk of procedural complications. AMCYT, INC's work on ROSE, supported by Sacramento Product Development, is setting new standards in medical procedures, underscoring their commitment to improving healthcare outcomes. https://lnkd.in/gavQXzHp

As numerous businesses continue to suffer from enormous challenges during these tough times, it is heartwarming to witness so many supportive initiatives around the Israeli industry. During recent weeks, I have been honored to take an active part in at least three different programs. One of these initiatives is #Road2Startup. With a clear mission of supporting early-stage Israeli startups, executives with diverse expertise have been brought abroad by Road2 Haifa and Pitch2Startup Community, to offer comprehensive support and mentoring for entrepreneurs from various verticals, who seek for professional support, resources, and executive guidance. Having already met with several CEOs of early-stage MedTech startups, I was happy to be able to address at least some of their challenges in Product Development, Routine Operation, Clinical and Regulatory Pathway, Fundraising Strategy, and Introduction to Potential Investors. Hats-off to Shir Barzur, Ronen Ben-Arie, Yaakov Diminsky and Elay Guez, for building this initiative!
