Fluidic Analytics company profile

Fluidic Analytics was formed in 2013 as a spin-out from the Department of Chemistry at the University of Cambridge. Their roots stretch back to a group of scientists who were inspired by the roles that proteins play in the biological world, driven to understand more about how proteins behave and function, but frustrated by the lack of suitable tools for protein characterisation. So they decided to invent their own. Their vision is that protein science will transform their understanding of how the biological world operates in real time. They believe that this transformation will be every bit as revolutionary as the way that advances in DNA sequencing have transformed their understanding of how the biological world operates over decades, lifetimes and generations. And they believe that Fluidic Analytics can help make this vision a reality by developing products that enable easier, faster, more convenient and more accurate protein characterisation, whether in the lab, at the bedside or in everyday life. They've combined cutting edge technology, a fantastic team and best practice in management and communication to go from their founding to a customer ready prototype in 2 years. And they’re only just beginning. This instrument is just the first step towards a platform technology that will serve as the interface between the biological and digital world – as they continue to expand what is possible for their customers. Their desire for accessibility and openness is present in their company’s culture of communication and integrity, in the usability of their products, in their open exchange of ideas with their collaborators and in their commitment to their users complete ownership of their own data. They believe that in working this way, they have the opportunity to create not just a company, but a community that fundamentally improves how they live.
