On Friday, June 27, 2008, the Florida Center for Universal Research to Eradicate Disease (FLCURED) teamed with Science Commons to convene a town hall meeting for Florida biomedical researchers, research institute officials and others. The topic was Open Innovation in Biomedical Research. This site is designed primarily to continue that conversation by allowing participants and others to leverage Web 2.0 technologies that facilitate open innovation through open innovation!
