Another $1.4 million will be invested by the Rhode Island Science and Technology Advisory Council for research that promotes collaboration by the state's academic and commercial institutions.

"Rhode Island is committed to making strategic investments into its R&D platform and significant improvements to our innovation infrastructure," says STAC co-chair Jeff Seemann, Dean of the College of the Environment and Life Sciences at the University of Rhode Island.

The program, started in 2006, supports research that represents discoveries likely to deliver value to Rhode Island's citizens, has strong technology development and/or commercialization potential and is well-positioned to attract follow-on funding from federal agencies, corporations and/or foundations
