October 7, 2026 identity correction: imported roles 552, 564, 565 and 566 belong to Arbor Ventures, a separate fintech manager, per Arbor’s official team page. Their existing personal-investor attribution links are transferred to correct Arbor roles before native removal of the erroneous Arboretum affiliations. The people and financing records are preserved. Four other historical imported names require separate identity review before further corrections.

Team reviewed October 7, 2026: the firm publishes 24 unique people, comprising 15 investment, finance and administrative staff and nine advisers. Nicole Vitullo also appears in adviser biographies and is recorded once as venture partner. Arboretum associate James Kim is kept separate from the existing Jona engineer of the same name. Jeff Terrell’s current title is managing partner on the firm’s own page. Fund VI’s $268 million 2023 close precedes the October 6, 2023 search window; no verified recent Fund VII close has been added. The existing Pharaoh Neuro 2026 Series A lead participation is retained.
