Center for Biopharmaceutical Research and Production

The Center for Biopharmaceutical Research and Production performs market-driven research and develops biopharmaceuticals, including vaccines, to treat diseases. It was established in 2008 as a North Dakota Economic Development Center of Excellence to perform all aspects of biotechnology research and development, including basic science research, animal testing, human trials, product development, and manufacturing.

In addition to serving as a comprehensive biotech/vaccine cluster, CBRP seeks to attract new biotechnology companies to North Dakota, offer education and training programs to produce a highly skilled workforce to support the industry, and enhance economic development by attracting revenue to the State through grants, contracts, intellectual property patents, and private investment.
