Mark Lawson, CEO of KSL Biomedical, explains some of the functions within the Williamsville company
A program formed with Buffalo Billion money seven years ago has created more than double the jobs it expected, state leaders say, while providing important information in the treatment and tracking of COVID.
Founded in 2014 with $47.5 million from Governor Andrew Cuomo’s Buffalo Billion program, the Buffalo Institute for Genomics and Data Analytics, or BIG, has provided support to more than a dozen companies, some of them established and some of them recent startups, in genomic research.
The program was also intended to create jobs in the field. Friday morning, Lt. Governor Kathy Hochul and University at Buffalo associate vice president of economic development Christina Orsi unfurled a banner outside KSL Biomedical in Williamsville.
