- Ryan C.N. D'Arcy (born 1972) is a Canadian neuroscientist, researcher, innovator and entrepreneur. D'Arcy co-founded HealthTech Connex Inc. and serves as President and Chief Scientific Officer. HealthTech Connex translates neuroscience advances into health technology breakthroughs. D'Arcy is most known for coining the term "brain vital signs" and for leading the research and development of the brain vital signs framework. He is also a full tenured professor with appointments at both Simon Fraser University and the University of British Columbia. He holds the Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation BC Leadership Chair in Multimodal Technology for Healthcare Innovations. D'Arcy has published more than 275 academic works, generated more than $100 million in competitive research and innovation investment, and has been recognized through numerous national and international awards and distinctions. Throughout his career, D'Arcy has been advancing brain innovations. He constantly champions Canada's role in the world's neuroscience sphere. He has been advocating for the brain to be monitored regularly to track one's health, as part of any other body's vital signs. He is strongly focused on optimizing brain health through objective measurements to find the best treatments. His work has involved developing accessible technology improvements for evaluation and treatment in brain injury and concussion along with other brain conditions such as dementia, epilepsy, brain tumours and stroke. D'Arcy has played instrumental roles in advancing Canada's biotechnology industry through founding and co-founding a number of large-scale health-technology initiatives over the course of his career while at the (NRC) and Simon Fraser University/Surrey Memorial Hospital. These initiatives include NRC's Institute of Biodiagnostics (Atlantic), now called BIOTIC, and BC's Health and Technology District, encompassing Surrey Memorial Hospital's Health Sciences and Innovation initiative, Innovation Boulevard, the NeuroTech and ImageTech Laboratories, the HealthTech Innovation Hub and the BrainNET initiative. The Health and Technology District continues to grow towards the planned goals of over 1.5 million square feet of health/technology/innovation space, employing more than 15,000 tech and tech related jobs, and generating more than $1.1 billion into the economy annually.
