Every year, millions of American families bear the overwhelming costs of brain damage. FRONT is set to change the future of brain repair, providing not only groundbreaking solutions for patients but also driving economic benefits for the nation.
NEW: No technology currently exists to repair damaged brain tissue and fully restore lost function. FRONT aims to enable millions with what is considered permanent brain damage to regain lost functions, including motor control, vision, and speech.

Dr. Amy Jenkins, our Health Science Futures Mission Office Director, said it best, “@ARPA_H is boldly investing in this novel research area because we envision a future where cancers are treated more quickly and easily.”.
Our project with @SonALAsense aims to bring to market a minimally- or non-invasive treatment for blood cancers! This is about increasing efficiency, increasing patient comfort, and decreasing cost.

Incredible to see the cover of @ScienceMagazine featuring work partly supported by @ARPA_H's CT-NEURO project, a cellular therapeutic platform that could support better treatments/outcomes for brain tumors like glioblastoma, chronic disorders like multiple sclerosis & Alzheimer’s.
An engineered T cell (center) is designed to deliver therapies to the brain. This T cell displays orange synthetic receptors on its surface, which recognize components of extracellular matrix fibers that are only found in the brain. Within the cell, downstream signaling pathways

Improving clinical trials will take collaboration from experts across the country. Through the integration of leading-edge technology, diverse expertise, and the power of ARPANET-H Health Innovation Network, we’re poised to transform how we bring new health solutions to patients.
What if we could make clinical trials accessible to most Americans?. ACTR aims to create a clinical trial network that would enable 90% of eligible Americans to participate in clinical trials within 30 minutes of their home.
