Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a fully formed idea?
No. You can apply with a problem area you care about and a hypothesis you want to test.
Is it open to undergraduates?
Yes (if applicable). We evaluate teams based on commitment and execution, not seniority.
Does the lab take equity? What are the terms?
Terms are currently negotiable and depend on the project. At this stage, the program does not provide direct funding.
We help teams build, validate, launch, and prepare to secure follow-on funding through grants, partners, and investors.
