Dr. Renee Wegrzyn is the first director of the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health, (ARPA-H), a new federal agency with a $2.5 billion budget. Modeled after DARPA, the agency is tasked with taking big risks in biomedical research that seem beyond the reach of the private sector. Dr. Wegrzyn joins Preet to discuss how ARPA-H is promoting innovation, and their goal to “end cancer as we know it.”
