The rise of biotechnology in the United States

Introduction: the fact that the biotechnology industry in the United States is proud of is that the United States has five leading biotechnology industry zones, including Boston, San Francisco, San Diego, Washington and North Carolina Research Triangle Park The rise of biotechnology industry in these five regions is no accident, but is driven by many important factors, including strong basic research as the backing, strong promotion of local institutions, extensive use of information technology and strong support of venture capital Xzq first of all, there are powerful universities and research institutions in the five biological industry regions of the United States Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of technology in botton have incomparable attraction for students University of California San Francisco, University of California Berkeley and Stanford University in San Francisco Bay area are also places where talents gather The University of California, San Diego, is one of the largest universities in the United States to receive federal research fees The Greater Washington area has gathered a number of world-class teaching, research and management institutions, such as the National Institutes of health, the food and Drug Administration of the United States, the Howard Hughes Medical School Research Laboratory, the University of Maryland research center and Johns Hopkins University North Carolina Research Triangle Park is adjacent to three famous universities in North Carolina: Duke University, North Carolina State University Raleigh and University of North Carolina Chappell hill Xzq is the second, the local biotechnology industry started early For example, the North Carolina Biotechnology Center, established in 1981, is the first state created biotechnology industry promotion organization in the United States The birth of this organization plays an important role in the development of North Carolina's biotechnology industry In 1985, the Massachusetts government funded the establishment of the biotechnology committee to stimulate the development of biotechnology industry in Boston and Worcester The Commission developed the first biotechnology incubator that year The Montgomery County Department of economic development, close to Washington, created a field 20 years ago to develop biotechnology in the area Selera and HgS are the first batch of life science enterprises established in this biotechnology development zone Third, xzq has the advantages of information technology and biotechnology integration When biology is rapidly changing into computer-based protein structure and function analysis science, the advantage of information technology is very important for the development of biotechnology The Silicon Valley adjacent to San Francisco Bay has gathered a large number of computer talents, who are the huge biological information and statistical technology resources of the biotechnology enterprise community in San Francisco Bay As AOL, the world's largest Internet service provider, and a series of other information giants are located in the Greater Washington area, Greater Washington has become a perfect combination of "biotechnology and computer science infrastructure" similar to the San Francisco Bay area As for Boston, North Carolina Research Triangle and San Diego, they all have advantages in information technology For example, IBM's main research and production base is in the Research Triangle Park in North Carolina San Diego is the headquarters of Qualcomm, which specializes in CDMA wireless communication products It is also one of the research bases of IBM, Nokia, Ericsson and Intel Xzq fourth: capital advantage Entrepreneurial culture and humanistic culture San Francisco Bay's abundant venture capital is another inherent advantage of its industry development Many big information technology companies in Silicon Valley have invested part of their profits in the biotechnology industry, which has injected blood into the development of the biotechnology industry in the bay area Venture capitalists who have helped promote the prosperity of high-tech industry in Silicon Valley have also helped the development of biotechnology in the bay area of San Francisco The rapid development of San Diego's biotechnology industry is closely related to sufficient funds The annual R & D funds received here are 7 billion US dollars, which exceeds the annual R & D budget of most developing countries Xzq in addition, the five regions have other advantages, such as famous schools in Boston, low consumption level and close community cooperation atmosphere in North Carolina, and excellent living environment in San Diego In San Francisco Bay, researchers are free to travel between universities and private enterprises Companies in the Washington area have the advantage of getting close to the water and building first month because they are close to the place where the policy is issued Xzq (author:) to feed Weibo to:
