Here’s What Life Science TN Foundation is About
It’s undeniable: Tennessee’s science community is on the rise. Companies are building here. Life-changing products are emerging from some of the most exciting science companies in the country. Investments are arriving almost daily. And the world is taking notice.
But we’re only getting started. A generation of young scientists needs to be cultivated. Our region’s workforce needs to be educated, enabled, and activated. The next round of science entrepreneurs needs to be fostered, fed, and funded. That’s what we do.
The science of today is the technology of tomorrow.
—Edward Teller
