MSU Office of Biobased Technologies connects public, private sectors of bioeconomy
The mission of the Office of Biobased Technologies (OBT) is to identify, encourage and support research programs that will position Michigan State University as a world leader in the development of the bioeconomy. Created in 2006, the OBT is designed to marshal MSU research and resources to help foster connections with public and private sector initiatives designed to expand Michigan's bioeconomic sector.
