Department of Defens has funded research at VitalMedixsinced 2005, according to the company’se Web site. Much of that research has been conducted atthe , a shareholder in VitalMedix. Wisconsin has nabbed otherr Minnesota biotech companies in past and triedr to lureothers — in 2005, it tried to lure artificial-liverf company Excorp, though that firm is still in for example.
