In the middle of dairy country, nestled by four glacial lakes, Madison, Wisconsin is quietly emerging as a biotechnology and life science powerhouse. The state's capital, Madison is a study in contrasts. Here the Midwest conservative work ethic coexists with the city's liberal-progressive politics, and scientists at the University of Wisconsin (UW)-Madison enjoy world-class research facilities and an affordable cost of living that colleagues in many other biotech "hotspots" can only dream of.
