Life Science Company and Industry News Briefs

In just five weeks, we will be hosting our 31st Semiannual UCLA show, where we are expecting 550-650 life science professionals who are interested in finding new products, technologies, and services to bring to their labs.

For research scientists looking to do great research and be a little "greener" with the tools, equipment and supplies that they are using in the lab there are solutions available. The question then is what's greener than what, and where do I get that greener stuff to use for my research.

Life Science professionals in the Los Angeles Area are invited to join us at the  31st semiannual Los Angeles Biotechnology Vendor Showcase™ Event, which will be held on the UCLA Campus on  April 4th, 2013.

•    $1 billion in research funding
•    $356 million in new NIH research grants
•    $1,011.8 million awarded for FY 2011-2012
•    $484.2 million awarded YTD for FY 2012-2013
•    Over 700  Life science Researchers expected to attend this event

Attendees come from 51 different research buildings and 87 departments around the UCLA campus.

Lab researchers go where the funding is and lab suppliers are quick to follow:

The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) holds much pride in the numerous prestigious awards and recognitions that it has achieved since being founded in 1919. From the 12 Nobel Prizes and 12 Rhodes Scholarships, to having more NCAA titles than any other university, and more Olympic medals than most nations. UCLA’s main mission is summed up in just three, simple words: Education, Research and Service; and their outstanding research projects have received $1 billion dollars every year for the past three years. 

Lab suppliers impact the speed at which scientific research happens by providing improvements in existing technologies and well as creating whole new technologies that allow researchers to make discoveries faster. Coming this spring at the University of California, Los Angeles there will be a Biotechnology Vendor Showcase event that will allow researchers to access and learn about the newest technologies for 2013 in life science research.
