Group to Release Strategic Health Plan
Jones says awareness is one key to addressing the sector's challenges.
The Indiana Health Industry Forum is scheduled to release its five-year strategic plan for the state's health science sector today. Chief Executive Officer Kristin Jones says the report will detail challenges including funding, training and public policy. She says BioCrossroads' $8.25 million Indiana Seed Fund II will go a long way to address financial hurdles, but earlier-stage funding is needed as well.
