Please note that we have a new site: LifeScienceHistory.com, "Where history is made daily" under development and
delayed by COVID-19, to be launched in 2023 replacing UtahLifeScience.com. Regrettably, we are working with reduced
staffing and the current industry directory is no longer being maintained, but will be replaced with a new and improved
directory upon the launch of the new site. We apologize for the inconvenience.
