From Infusion Suite to Salad Bar: A Metaphor
and a Mission

“From infusion suite to salad bar” isn’t just a catchy line—
it’s a philosophical shift.

The infusion suite represents:

• Industrial care.
• Centralized expertise.
• Reimbursement complexity.
• Passive patients in active systems.

The salad bar represents:

• Personal agency.
• Localized production.
• Low-friction access.
• Patients as participants—not just recipients—of
their care.

What began as a clinical trial for one woman could become
a global blueprint:

• For IBD.
• For enzyme replacement therapy.
• For tolerogenic vaccines.
• For any biologic that doesn’t need to be injected to
work.

But only if we have:

• The vision to scale it.
• The ethics to share it.
