State seeks bioscience board to guide Kansas plan
Kansas officials approve funding for bioscience research and form a governing 11 member board. The plan aims to reinvest 500 to 600 million dollars over 10 years, create about 40,000 bioscience jobs, and boost the economy after manufacturing job losses. Nine voting members must be Kansas residents, with two nonvoting members from Kansas research universities. Board members will serve without salary.
