Sen. Todd Young paid a visit to 16 Tech Innovation District, encouraging Indiana’s business and research leaders to pursue more federal funding to drive critical health innovations through the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H). This federal agency was established in 2022 to fast-track #biomedical advancements by funding high-impact projects and recently awarded a $44 million, five-year contract to 34 Lives, a West Lafayette company focused on increasing the number of donor kidneys available for life-saving transplants. #funding #research #biotech #healthcare #indiana

Chris and Kathleen were delighted to attend the ARPA-H press conference today with Sen. Todd Young (second from right), ARPA-H Director Dr. Renee Wegryzn (second from left), 16 Tech CEO Emily Krueger (far right) and most of all, star transplant patient Sylvia Miles (third from left). Without the $44M award from ARPA-H, our research to innovate the science of kidney transplantation could not possibly move as quickly and efficiently as it will with their support. Thank you one and all! #34lives #16tech #arpah #nokidneyleftbehind #indiana

Today I had the opportunity to tour 34 Lives, which is revolutionizing kidney transplants. Using innovative #technology, they rescue kidneys that were once considered unusable and extend the safe preservation times for unused kidneys. Since their establishment in April this year, 34 Lives has already saved over 20 lives. Their impact is continuing to grow. They are continuing to expand their efforts, partnering with Purdue University to build on their life-saving work. Their dedication to improving #healthcare and changing the future of organ donation is inspiring. A special thank you to the team (Kathleen and Nick) at 34 Lives for sharing their incredible mission with us today!
