About this episode

Dr. Paul Sheehan discusses ARPA-H's new model aimed at improving the reliability and accessibility of biomedical research.

The limits of biomedical research often come down to access, tools, networks and where the work happens. ARPA‑H is piloting a system meant to level that out while improving reliability. Here to tell us how this will all work is Dr. Paul Sheehan, program manager for IGOR at ARPA‑H.
