How does Arizona compare with what other states are doing to advance the biosciences?
Forty-one states are targeting the biosciences with the largest amounts of funding including Pennsylvania’s $2 billion over 25 years, Florida’s $1.2 billion, and Wisconsin’s $750 million. In 2004, California voters successfully passed a stem-cell initiative dedicating $3 billion over the next 10 years to this important area of bioscience research. Arizona’s commitment of $440 million for research facilities, as well as $35 million for the 21st Century Fund, is a strong down payment, but additional resources will be needed for faculty, equipment, and other assets that Arizona must secure to compete with these states.
