    Recognizing life science leaders in the Midwest such as BioSante
(Illinois), Eli Lilly and Company (Indiana), MGI Pharma (Minnesota), and
Pfizer (Michigan and Missouri), the campaign also includes prominent research
institutes, non-profit organizations and universities. Midwest Research
University Network, The Center for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine (Ohio),
and University of Notre Dame (Indiana) are featured.
    BioCrossroads, Indiana's life sciences initiative, is one of the major
supporters of the campaign.  BioCrossroads also maintains a BioZone page
within BioSpace.com that features information on their initiatives and other
items specific to the state of Indiana.
    The BioCorridor campaign presents a BioCorridor Hotbed Map, created by
BioSpace's professional artist, which displays the corporate logos and
facilities of participating organizations. Copies of the map are available
through BioSpace.com. The map is further enhanced through the integration of
many functional components including a BioCorridor Hotbed Homepage, on
BioSpace's industry leading Website, BioSpace.com. The BioCorridor page
features the latest bio-pharm news, jobs, events and other information from
the Midwest region. BioSpace will market the campaign online and at major
national life science events throughout the year.
    "BioSpace is happy to welcome the Midwest region to our community of life
science clusters. We have enjoyed working with the different states involved
in the effort and anticipate many more campaigns as the area and its industry
continue to grow," said Brian Vacanti, Division Manager of BioSpace.
