Scotland’s life science sector was given a boost with the recent official opening of a new building at Livingston by Quintiles Transnational that will create 150 jobs by 2011.
Quintiles, a US-based biopharmaceuticals service company, has spent more than £9.5m ($15.6m) developing an 80,000 sq ft laboratory that will be used for clinical trials involving patients from all over Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.
