Growing The Nations Biotech Sector: State Bioscience Initiatives 2006

This report is a follow-up to a 2004 report in which the authors developed data to measure the size, composition, and geographic distribution of the biosciences across the country. In an effort to understand how and where the bioscience sector is growing and how public policy is supporting this growth, the 2006 report presents updated data, examines trends, and identifies metropolitan areas with the largest and most concentrated employment in each of the biosciences subsectors.
