5
Origin of the species Step 1. Flemish government evaluates the life sciences research [1994] _Rotterdam 21/04/05
6
Origin of the species The 1994 conclusions: big names in science
but lack of structural support critical mass translation in industrial activities _Rotterdam 21/04/05
7
Origin of the species The conventional approach:
Dedicate a certain volume of an existing granting body to life sciences research danger: slice it thin lack of sustainability Establish a novel independent research institution danger: disturb the equilibrium lag phase _Rotterdam 21/04/05
