Wiley: UW’s expertise led to pact

The siting of the nation’s first stem cell bank at the University of Wisconsin-Madison is a direct result of the university’s unparalleled infrastructure supporting embryonic research, said Chancellor John Wiley.

“In reality, few institutions have the right pieces and could actually deliver,” Wiley said this morning at a news conference at the WiCell Research Institute at the University Research Park.

Among the important entities identified by Wiley were the Waisman Center, Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation, WiCell and the research park.
