Join us Monday, September 21st at 5:30pm in Cambridge, MA for a talk with Ross Uhrich, a Board-Certified Surgeon and Program Manager at ARPA-H, the U.S. government agency built to fast-track breakthroughs in health.  Ross oversees a ~$400M portfolio of 30+ assets across frontier biotechnology and has built and launched ARPA-H's Novel Innovations for Tissue Regeneration in Osteoarthritis (NITRO) program which is the agency's flagship tissue regeneration initiative. Drawing on his experience bridging government innovation, company creation, and biotech investment, Ross will share how he turns cutting-edge science into real treatments for one of the most prevalent and undertreated diseases of aging.
