Here's some potential good news for Detroit: folks at Asterand and other places are working to get the Federal Tissue Bank moved to TechTown. That could cement Detroit's role in the biotech boom as a niche provider of tissue samples for research and treatment, just like the Google announcement seems to be cementing metro Detroit's role as a provider of interactive advertising for the internet.

Here's to hoping. It will be quite the score for Techtown, the city and the state if Asterand can land that tissue bank.

This would be very positive for Detroit. Certainly an image booster too.
