Please note that we have a new site: LifeScienceHistory.com, "Where history is made daily" under development and
delayed by COVID-19, to be launched in 2023 replacing WashingtonLifeScience.com. Regrettably, we are working with reduced
staffing and the current industry directory is no longer being maintained, but will be replaced with a new and improved
directory upon the launch of the new site. We apologize for the inconvenience.

| Company Description | The Life Sciences Discovery Fund Authority was created by Engrossed Second Substitute Senate Bill 5581, passed by the Legislature and signed by the Governor during the 2005 Regular Session. The stated purpose is to "promote life sciences research to foster a preventative and predictive vision of the next generation of health-related innovations, to enhance the competitive position of Washington State in this vital sector of the economy, and to improve the quality and delivery of health care for the people of Washington." It is expected that this purpose will be achieved by making grants to research institutions in the State. | |
