IDEA Lab creates solutions.
We develop solutions for problems in anesthesia and healthcare – locally, nationally, and globally.

We provide the education, tools, and space for ideas to develop, grow, and thrive. Our lab facilitates the continuous process of improving the viability of an innovation concept.
Funding
We support applications for external grant funding (e.g. foundation grants, tech incubators, and federal SBIR/STTR programs) and will assist with applications for vetted concepts.
