As a biotechnology entrepreneur – still striving for success – I offer a plan (Biotech Jobs for America) to add 200,000 bioscience jobs over four years. (Thanks to friends)
The plan asks Congress to allocate $6.7 billion in additional funding to five existing programs: SBIR. TIP. USAMRMC and AFIRM. CDMRP. SBIC.
But it's not just about the jobs.
We know that half our OEF/OIF wounded warriors will seek treatment for pain.
There are currently no programs to fund development of more effective, non-addictive pain meds for them.
My jobs plan addresses their pain, too.
