The University of Alabama is an unexpected standout in the science research marketplace. This campus ranks among the top in the nation, flanking closely with the top NIH funded universities, and yet there is surprisingly little sales rep traffic on campus.
Consider these building updates and funding statistics on UAB:
- In 2011, UAB had a $4.6 Billion economic impact on the Birmingham community.
- The University of Alabama, Birmingham receives more funding annually than all of the universities in the state, combined.
- According to the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, UAB is classified among the top 96 universities in the nation for “Very High Research Activity.”
- A 2011 edition of the US News and World Report placed UAB 34th in the United States for the Biological Sciences.
- In FY 2012 the University of Alabama received over $191 million in new NIH research grants.
- University president, Carol Garrison unveiled a plan that would transform the UAB campus. The strategic plan includes renovations for the Shelby Biomedical Research Building, as well as the construction of a new science facility in the area.
Last year exhibitors took the opportunity to step in and make an impact on this market by exhibiting at the 13th Annual BioResearch Product Faire™ Event at UAB. The average ratio of researchers to exhibitors was 22 to 1 and attracted 366 researchers from throughout campus. Of this total, 64 were professors and post doctorates. Of the total participants 62 were lab managers. The balance were research associates and postgraduate students. These attendees came from 33 different research buildings and 45 departments around campus.
This event will take place again this year on November 1, 2012 and there is still one week left to make it into the Event program and printed publicity for this event.
