Scientific boost for Harlow - The announcement that a new £10m scientific centre will be based in Harlow is very good news for the town.
The site will be at the GSK plant and will replace the laboratories there which are currently involved with the Olympic drug testing procedures.
The centre will receive £10m of funding over the next five years and represents a huge boost for scientific research in Harlow. It follows other significant investment in the town, most notably our biotech Enterprise Zone and the new University Technical College that will open on the Harlow College campus in 2014.
