In addition to significant annual NIH research funding, Columbia University has an impressive list of other recent funding statistics.

For example:

  • Columbia University has an annual research budget of approximately $1 billion.
  • Recently received a $200 million donation for the construction of the new Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute.
  • Columbia’s 2013 Life Science R & D Expenditures totaled $589,526,000.
  • 2014 NIH Funding totaled $441,221,637.
  • Columbia University recently received a $25 million, 3-year gift for the Medical Center towards a New Initiative for the treatment of ALS.
  • Columbia University Medical Center Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center received an $18 million 5 year Cancer Center Support Grant from the NCI. 
Considering these impressive funding figures, it should be easy to recognize that the life science sales market is thriving at Columbia University. That’s why Biotechnology Calendar, Inc.is offering lab suppliers and biotechnology vendors an excellent opportunity to network with Columbia’s active researchers at the-
