Hi,

Lethal genetic disorders like cystic fibrosis require lots of money for research. I think this is a very good initiative from the US government. Constant research helps extending the life of thousands of patients. I hope the US Senate approved this program.

SBIR grants are so important to the advancement in science. To further help anyone involved in a bioscience start-up venture on the research side, I’m working with a professional online community, Epernicus (www.Epernicus.com), which will enable you to share your life science research with other scientists.

It’s already got close to 10,000 scientists (most of them in the life sciences) at more than 1,800 institutions in 67 countries. Epernicus is not just in academia, but also in private industry and government institutions. By the way, it’s free.

You can save a lot of time and effort tracking down scientists who could share information that you need. Think of it as kind of a Facebook or LinkedIn for life scientists.
