I am excited to partner with other ORIC Fellows to help shape the future of this signature ARIS program. Our university benefited tremendously from the information, support, and network the ORIC program provided us, and I am eager to think about ways the program can evolve while continuing to help other organizations right-size and maximize their research impact infrastructure.
