Formed in 2007, the BLC recognizes communication, outreach, and education as the tools to promote, discuss, and formulate potential legislative initiatives in a balanced and factual manner. It understands that working in partnership with the bioscience community can positively impact policies and programs to help make Michigan a leader in this high-growth sector.
Caucus meetings provide an opportunity for Michigan state legislators and their staff to hear about issues affecting the state's bio-industry. Topics have included state competitiveness, growing the clinical trials sector, capital formation needs, among others.
