Initiatives & Sprints

The Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) also supports research initiatives, challenges, and sprints that aim to rapidly accelerate research innovation in a specific area. These efforts are designed to rapidly move from proposal to funded contracts. Unlike programs that are driven by a single goal, these targeted investments follow unique funding tracks across a range of topics.
