Future Founders Conference for Women Globally
On November 18, we are hosting our first Future Founders Conference for women who aspire to become a startup founder. The event will be online, and whether you are curious about launching your own startup or are in the early stages of building one, you’ll walk away with the knowledge to define your own path.

How to spin your scientific research out of a university and into a startup
This is advice for people who have done scientific research at a university and are considering starting a company to commercialize it. At YC, we’ve funded more than 75 companies in this situation. We also recently went on a Bio Tour where we went around to research universities and talked with hundreds of students and professors in the life sciences about commercializing their research. 

Startup School for Future Founders
We launched Startup School as an online program in 2017 to support founders actively working on building their companies. On November 9th, we’re also opening Startup School to potential founders who are interested in starting a company in the future. You can register for the new course today.

First YC Bio company to start clinical trials
Shasqi is the first YC Bio company to start first-in-human clinical trials for a drug. Shasqi is the first therapeutics company YC funded, back in 2015 when we launched YC Bio.
