A 135,000-square-foot building in Dallas' Pegasus Park is set to open in 2024 as a "customer experience hub" for the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health, or ARPA-H, the Dallas Morning News reports.

According to the Dallas Business Journal, ARPA-H is an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services that's tasked with improving the way health care is delivered in the US.

The ARPA-H customer experience hub in Texas will bring together researchers, hospitals, clinics, small businesses, advocacy groups, and more.

It's part of a nationwide effort to make it easier for people to take part in clinical trials.

The ARPA-H customer experience hub in Texas will include Bridge Labs, which is scheduled to open in 2024.

It's expected to bring hundreds of new jobs to the Dallas area and be a boost for the local economy.

ARPA-H is aiming to make it easier for 90% of eligible Americans to take part in a clinical trial within a half-hour of their home.
