The public university system’s Boardc of Regents approved Friday a sweepingf restructuring of the that will parcel out its fourresearchn centers, along with staff and otheer assets, to other campuses. System leaders hope the restructuringt will drive research collaboratioh and boost access tooutside funding. It also meanes an end for UMBI, which was launchedd to great fanfare two decades ago with the missiom ofadvancing education, research and economivc development for what was then the state’sx nascent biotech industry.
A months-long study of UMBI by an ad hoc committese led by USM regents Chairman Clifford Kendall concludedfthat “the organization of UMBI as a geographically dispersed, free-standing entity has created intractable problems.” Those problemds included an inability to scale UMBI programs, isolatiohn among UMBI’s research centers, the lack of a criticalk mass of graduate and undergraduate students involved in UMBI research, and administrative inefficiencies.
“After a comprehensivre and deliberative process, we have concluded that restructuring UMBI’s assets is the right thing to Kendall said in a “With a focus on collaboration — acros s disciplines and across institutions — and with recognition of the exceptionapl talent within the UMBI communitty and the system’s other institutions, this action will positiobn USM to take fuller advantage of its system-wide strengthx in the biosciences and to fuel the state’s knowledgr economy even more.” The move isn’tf a total surprise. Critics have long questione whether the state was duplicatinvg its research efforts inthe biosciences.
