| Ohio’s Third Frontier Awards $23M to |
|
The Ohio Third Frontier Commission last week announced that it has awarded six public-private research groups a total of $23 million through the Ohio Biomedical Research Commercialization Program to help commercialize promising biomedical technologies.
For the second time in the history of the 5-year-old program an Ohio-based life-sciences company will lead one of the grants. The OBRCP has traditionally named a university or non-profit research institution to head funded projects.
The decision to once again appoint a company to lead a project is a sign that the program is now funding more applied research with an eye toward commercializing biomedical innovations in the state, a program official said this week.
