 Carmell Therapeutics
President Alan West has the following to say about the SBIR Advance Training offered by PLSG and supported by the IPart:

The SBIR Advance program is a terrific asset for early stage life sciences companies in western Pennsylvania and statewide.  Carmell Therapeutics was awarded an SBIR grant from NIH on its very first try, largely as a result of assistance from the PLSG SBIR Advance program.  Their workshop in preparing companies for writing, editing, and submitting grant proposals is not only “on the mark”, it also is free to life sciences companies!  After Carmell was awarded the NIH grant, the SBIR Advance experts continued to help educate the company on how to put systems in place and account for and draw-down the money, ensuring we remain in compliance.  It is an incredibly valuable program that surpasses all expectations, and I have and will highly recommend it to any entrepreneur or small company.
