The Ohio Life Sciences Institute (OLSi)

Institute Leadership

The Ohio Life Sciences Institute is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit building Ohio’s life sciences workforce and economy — through workforce programs like the Ohio Life Science Training Center, BioPathways, and the Life Science Learning Kit, and economic development initiatives like our Life Science Ready Community Designation, Industry research tools, and reports. Our programs serve the whole statewide ecosystem, not just OLS Association members.
