VaBIO Sponsors 10K Team for Research
The Virginia BioTechnology Research Park (VBRP) and the Virginia Biotechnology Association (VaBIO) are recruiting 150 individuals to run/walk the Ukrop’s Monument Avenue 10K race against cancer, on Saturday, April 5, in Richmond, Virginia. With a fundraising goal of $100 per participant, the two bioscience groups hope to raise $15,000 for research. All those who participate on Team Biotech will have the opportunity to walk/run in honor of someone, whose name will be incorporated into the logo and memorialized on the back of the team t-shirts.
