The region is rich in bioscience - it contains many leading universities, research and clinical institutes.

These include the International Centre for Life, a unique "science village" with 500 people involved in research and technology transfer and the Life Knowledge Park - a world-class genetic research centre delivering fundamental improvements in human health. The region is also home to a host of global bio-companies and generates more than 30% of the UK’s entire economic output of pharmaceuticals.

CELS provides commercialisation services to the bio-economy. We operate across the entire spectrum of life sciences, but are particularly interested in collaborations, partnerships and commercial ventures in "flagship" areas where the region already has a strong research base, clinical capability and indigenous companies. These include, but are not limited to:

  • Stem Cells & Cell Therapy
  • Systems & Cell Biology (including predictive biology)
  • Biomanufacturing / bioprocessing
  • Ageing & Health
  • Bio-metrology (including bio-sensors and diagnostics)
