Kansas State University and Sen. Jerry Moran announced on Monday that the university will receive a $7 million federal investment to support the university’s Biomanufacturing Training and Education Initiative.
The funding will be directed toward the construction of the new Biomanufacturing Core and Training Facility, which will improve the university’s ability to perform cutting-edge research and workforce development.
“As Kansas continues to grow its animal health corridor, Kansas State University is uniquely equipped to train the workforce needed for this industry,” Moran said. “I worked to secure federal resources to bolster K-State’s efforts to build Manhattan into a premier location for biotechnology and biodefense companies looking to expand.”
