Life Sciences
Purpose of the Group
Support for innovation in life sciences is critical for the development of Scotland's future economic success, together with strategies for the practical applications which improve the health and lives of millions of people globally.
The Cross-Party Group will be the forum for Members of the Scottish Parliament (MSPs), stakeholders and interested parties to engage directly with each other in order to raise awareness of the opportunities and challenges facing the sector and to better inform the development of policy in this important area.
