ARPA-H Program Manager Dr. Kimberley Steele asks:

▪️What if we could make the invisible visible?
▪️What if we could detect dysfunction before irreversible damage?
▪️What if targeting the lymphatic system could prevent — even cure — disease?

Incremental change isn’t enough. (2/3)

On #WorldLymphedemaDay, we’re standing with the lymphedema community to confront a system medicine has overlooked for too long.

For decades, the lymphatic system has been understudied. Under-imaged. Underestimated. (1/3)

Boston, you reminded us why this work matters. The minds, the mission, the momentum — thank you for opening your doors for our visit.

CIRCLE: Critical Illness Immunological Reprogramming and Control Point Learning Engine

Creating more “Happy Birthday”s & “Happy Anniversary”s. By monitoring the immune system during critical care, our CIRCLE program will empower doctors to fine-tune treatments, halt disease progression & save lives.

That ends now. Our GLIDE program will build the first therapeutic toolkit to repair, restore & regenerate damaged lymphatic vessels—launching a new field of lymphatic medicine. Meet the awardees (2/2) arpa-h.gov/news-and-eve...

For decades, medicine managed chronic disease symptoms — while ignoring the system connecting them all. When it breaks down, the damage radiates everywhere — heart failure, diabetes, autoimmune disease, obesity. And there are zero FDA-approved treatments that actually repair it. (1/2)

The future of human health is being built right now. And we're investing in the people bold enough to create it. (2/2)

We’re LIVE in Boston and surrounded by innovators who refuse to accept the status quo in health. Boston is where biotech's brightest minds push boundaries and save lives. That's exactly why we're doubling down here ensuring every dollar drives game changing breakthroughs. (1/2)

What if the ultimate health monitor was invisible?

OCULAB teams are building sensors that live in your tear duct, read your body's chemistry in real time, and deliver treatment when you need it — not on a fixed schedule. arpa-h.gov/news-and-eve...

Day 1: Boston doesn't just talk about the future — it builds it. Grateful to be in a city that matches our urgency.

Your proteins are making deadly typos. BIOGAMI is teaching them to spell correctly. When proteins in the body misfold, they can trigger diseases like ALS, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's – but what if we intervene before that happens?
