What is the Bio-Link South Central Region?

Bio-Link is a national consortium, supported by the Advanced Technological Education (ATE) division of the National Science Foundation, to promote excellence in vocational and technical education in the biotechnology field. Visit the Bio-Link national home page to learn more about this unique and important effort.

The Bio-Link National Center, based in San Francisco, coordinates and directs the work of six major regional centers and the Northern California Biotechnology Center (NCBC). These regional centers are strategically located at community colleges throughout the country. Austin Community College is the center for the South Central Region, which includes the states of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico and Colorado.

The NCBC, housed at City College of San Francisco, is a State-funded consortium of Northern California community college biotechnology centers. The regional centers and NCBC all participate in the NSF Bio-Link grant through sub-contracts with the National Center. Each regional center pursues a number of activities with the National Center. In addition to coordinating this effort, each center also pursues its own set of activities.
