MIT linQ changes how people think and work to accelerate and heighten the impact of research on health and society.
Impact-oriented action
The linQ Method helps innovators accelerate and heighten the impact of their solutions on serious health and medical challenges. Not only do they achieve innovation milestones faster and with more certainty, they grow as professionals—whether they are early in their careers or already experienced leaders.
How we work
Community-driven change
linQ accelerates innovation by giving all players in the process opportunities for hands-on collaboration, enabling a free flow of ideas, connections, and wisdom that benefits everyone. Comprising leaders in engineering, science, medicine, and business, the linQ community overcomes together the typical divisions that stifle innovation.

Leuko Labs: Noninvasive white blood cell monitoring
PointCheck by Leuko Labs is a new technology spun out of the Catalyst program designed in response to the risks and challenges faced by chemotherapy patients. Instead of facing frequent and difficult blood draws, patients using PointCheck can quickly and painlessly check their white cell counts at home.
