Building on the success of last year, Pitt is expanding its support for early-stage innovators in life sciences who are tackling unmet challenges in human health and disease. We are excited to invite you to join the Pitt Community of Innovators, an initiative from the Office of Innovation and Entrepreneurship (OIE) that brings together researchers, OIE staff, and external experts for education and mentorship opportunities. As a member, you’ll have access to resources that can accelerate your translational research and increase your chances of securing future funding and success.
