Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
Non-dilutive ARPA-H funding reduces equity dilution risk while validating the technology; potential milestone-driven funding and collaborative synergies with UCSD and Allegro could accelerate product development and future revenue opportunities, though near-term impact depends on milestones and data; historically, government-funded biotech collaborations can spark upside if milestones are met.
