Baker-Polito Administration Awards $39 Million in Capital Grant Funding to Educational and Research Institutions
Grants will advance scientific discovery and prepare a highly skilled STEM workforce

GLOUCESTER – Governor Charlie Baker and the Massachusetts Life Science Center (MLSC) today announced $39 million in capital funding for research centers and life sciences training facilities at colleges, universities, middle schools and high schools across the Commonwealth. An event was held today at the Gloucester Marine Genomic Institute with Governor Baker to announce the awards on the North Shore. Regional events will be held in the coming weeks to formally announce the projects that will be funded in other areas of the state.

“Our administration is proud of Massachusetts’s global leadership in the life sciences, and we are committed to advancing that standing, training the next generation of entrepreneurs, and connecting residents across the state to careers,” said Governor Baker. “The projects that we are announcing today demonstrate our commitment to investing in the innovation economy, supporting game-changing technological research, and creating jobs in every region of the Commonwealth.”

“These capital grants from the Massachusetts Life Sciences Center deepen our administration’s efforts to build vibrant regions, from Cape Ann to the Berkshires,” said Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito. “By training middle school and high school students on state-of-the-art STEM equipment, and creating new pipelines for workforce development and scientific breakthroughs, these awards will create new economic opportunities in communities, and help build a stronger Massachusetts.”

“The MLSC continues to make major capital investments to support education and training at academic institutions across the entire Commonwealth in order to meet the workforce needs of our state’s fastest-growing industry,” said Travis McCready, President and CEO of the MLSC. “Through these resources, our academic institutions will be better positioned to connect students with job opportunities in the Massachusetts life sciences ecosystem, and our research institutions will have the infrastructure that they need to accelerate research and improve patient care.”

“One of our capital investment plan priorities is to make strategic investments in the future workforce of the Commonwealth, including STEM programs for our students,” said Administration and Finance Secretary Kristen Lepore. “By awarding these capital grants today, the administration is once again leveraging our resources to invest in the Commonwealth’s growing biotech industry.”          

“Massachusetts is building the nation’s most competitive economy by investing in workforce development, and in the infrastructure of innovation,” said Housing and Economic Development Secretary Jay Ash. “By spurring new scientific breakthroughs, and improving the quality of STEM education for students across Massachusetts, these awards will help make the Commonwealth a more dynamic place to live and work, and they will equip local residents with the skills needed to retain Massachusetts’s title as the most innovative state in the nation.”

Governor Baker announced a total of $35 million in MLSC competitive capital funding, for research and workforce training infrastructure at 14 higher education institutions and research institutes. The awarded projects will maintain Massachusetts’s leadership in life sciences research and development, and will deepen career pathways for students from the Pioneer Valley to the South Coast.

張藝謀新片"長城" 2/17 全美上映

大導演張藝謀最新鉅獻“長城”2 月 17 日全美上映 由 巨星 馬特戴蒙、 令人矚目 的女星 景甜、 和 華裔超級巨星 共同 領銜主演 古裝 奇幻歷險大片


由傳奇娛樂和環球電影公司共同出品的鉅製“長城”(THE GREAT WALL)訂明天 2 月 17 日 在美國上映。這部由著名中國導演張藝謀(“大紅燈籠高高掛”、“英雄”、“十面埋伏”)執 導的古裝奇幻歷險大片是他的第一部英語作品,也是有史以來完全在中國境內拍攝的最大 型電影。

“長城”講述的是一支精英隊伍在全世界最具代表性的建築物上,為保護人類生存進行最 後決戰的故事。這個故事以古老中國的奇幻世界為背景,在這個世界裡,修築長城的目的 是為了防禦名叫饕餮,生性兇殘,狼吞虎嚥的怪獸。

奧斯卡金像獎得主馬特戴蒙(Matt Damon)在片中飾演身經百戰的僱傭兵和射箭高手威 廉加林(William Garin),被由精銳戰士組成的秘密部隊無影禁軍俘虜。在一望無際的軍 事要塞 Fortress City 中,他們為保護全人類,在史上最偉大的防禦建築萬里長城上與超自 然能力決一死戰。在這場戰役中,威廉加林還得到由佩德羅帕斯卡(Pedro Pascal) (Netflix “Narcos”、HBO “權力遊戲”(Game of Thrones))飾演,聰明過人的西班牙硬漢 和劍術高手 Pero Tovar 的鼎力相助,並成為他倚重的左右手;和兩度得到奧斯卡提名的威 廉達佛(Willem Dafoe)(“野戰排“(Platoon)、”我和殭屍有約”(Shadow of the Vampire)、“布達佩斯大飯店“(The Grand Budapest Hotel))飾演的陰險罪犯巴拉德 (Ballard)。長期被囚禁在城堡中的巴拉德不但密謀逃亡,而且策劃在逃亡過程中盜取戰 士最精密的武器。

張藝謀為了拍攝“長城”,召集了東西方電影界最堅強的演員和攝影陣容,以少見的環球聯 手製作方式,創造出規模難得一見,不容錯過的空前鉅製。

華裔超級巨星的陣容包括香港紅星劉德華(“十面埋伏”、“暗戰”、“無間道”)。他再次與 張藝謀導演合作,在“長城”中飾演術士王軍師,是常駐城堡的科學家兼歷史學家。林更新 (”步步驚心“、“智取威虎山”)飾演鷹軍將領陳將軍。台裔加拿大籍演員彭于晏(“戀 香”、“黃飛鴻之英雄有夢”)飾演虎軍將領吳將軍。黃軒(“激浪青春”、“黃金時代”)飾演 騎兵隊將領鄧將軍。鄭愷(中國紅火電視綜藝節目“奔跑吧兄弟”主持人)飾演王軍師的特 使沈大人。陳學冬(“小時代 1.0”三部曲)飾演御林軍軍官。
 



“長城”堅強的演員陣容還包括兩位中國流行音樂巨星 – 鹿晗(EXO 男團)飾演士兵彭 勇。他是熊軍將領邵將軍的部下,必須在怪獸入侵時克服恐懼,奮力掙扎,證明自己的勇 氣。“長城”也是王俊凱(中國男團 TFBOYS 主唱)的第一次職業性演出,他在片中飾演 少年皇帝宋仁宗,在 17 歲的年紀就必須面對空前考驗。

“長城”將在 3D 和 IMAX 銀幕放映,也將在 2D 影院上映。  

Zhang Yimou’s THE GREAT WALL Opens in the U.S. on February 17
Epic Fantasy-Adventure Stars Matt Damon, Breakout Actress Jing Tian and a Superstar Chinese Cast


Legendary and Universal Pictures release THE GREAT WALL in U.S. theatres, tomorrow, Feb. 17. The epic fantasy-adventure from acclaimed Chinese director Zhang Yimou (“Raise the Red Lantern,” “Hero,” “House of Flying Daggers”) is his first English-language production, and the largest film ever shot entirely in China.

THE GREAT WALL is the story of an elite force making a last stand for humanity on the world’s most iconic structure. The movie takes place in a fantasy vision of ancient China, in which The Wall was created to defend against ravenous predatory creatures called Tao Tei.  In the film, Academy Award® winner Matt Damon stars as William Garin, a battle-scarred mercenary and master archer taken captive by a secret army of elite warriors known as The Nameless Order.  In a vast military outpost called the Fortress City, they fight to protect humanity from supernatural forces upon one of the greatest defensive structures ever built: The Great Wall.  On his journey, Garin is joined by Pedro Pascal (Netflix’s “Narcos,” HBO’s “Game of Thrones”) as his sword-wielding sidekick, Pero Tovar, a tough, wise-cracking Spaniard who has become a brother-in-arms to William; and two-time Oscar®-nominee Willem Dafoe (“Platoon,” “Shadow of the Vampire,” “The Grand Budapest Hotel”) as Ballard, a shadowy prisoner inside the fortress who plans his escape from his longtime captors while hoping to pilfer their greatest weapon during his getaway.

To create THE GREAT WALL, Yimou assembled a formidable cast and filmmaking team that represents the best of East and West in a unique global production that delivers unmissable spectacle on the grandest scale. 

The superstar Chinese cast includes renowned Hong Kong actor Andy Lau (“House of Flying Daggers,” “Running Out of Time,” “Internal Affairs”), who reunites with director Yimou as Strategist Wang, the fortress’ resident scientist and historian; Lin Gengxin (“Bubu Jingxin,” “The Taking of Tiger Mountain”) as Commander Chen,  the leader of the Eagle Corps; Taiwanese-Canadian actor Eddie Peng Yu-Yen (“Scent of Love,” “Rise of the Legend”) as Commander Wu, who leads the Tiger Corps; Xuan Huang (“Breaking the Waves,” “The Golden Era”) as Commander Deng, leader of the fortress’ cavalry; Zheng Kai (China’s TV hit “Running Mann”) as Shen, Strategist Wang’s imperial liaison; and Chen Xuedong (the “Tiny Times 1.0” trilogy) as one of the fortress’ Imperial Guards.

THE GREAT WALL also welcomes to its cast a pair of China’s pop-music sensations—Lu Han (the band EXO) as Peng Yong, a soldier struggling under the command of the Bear Corps’ Gen. Shao, who must overcome his fear and prove himself heroic during the creature onslaught; and Junkai Wang (frontman for China’s TFBOYS), who makes his professional acting debut as The Emperor, the 17-year-old royal ruler tested before his time. 

THE GREAT WALL will show on 3D and IMAX screens, as well as 2D theaters.

     新英格蘭玉山科技協會 (MJNE) 與台灣藥品聯盟  (Taiwan Pharmaceutical Alliance; TPA) 於本月12 日中午在波士頓(衛斯理Blue Ginger餐廳)舉行了一場圓桌討論會,旨在思論如何面對台灣與美國藥廠之間合作的挑戰與機會。儘管外面的雪下的繽飛共有46位來賓出席。與會的有許多在美國藥廠或是自行創業多年的資深經理及美國藥劑協會(American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists, AAPS)的代表,台灣來的單位則有醫藥工業技術發展中心 Medical and Pharmaceutical Industry Technology and Development Center, PITDC)及數家台灣大藥廠與生技公司代表- 益得生技. 培力藥廠. 台灣醣聯生技. 瑞安大藥廠,並有台灣駐美貿易投資服務處處長以及駐波士頓辦事處的副處長蒞臨。期能在這樣的討論會中除了能夠激起火花、尋找合作機會外,亦能夠批判性地指出現今台灣醫藥產業發展困境並思考對策。

     MJNE 在美國已深耕多年,目的除了活絡在大波士頓地區的科技業如醫藥業,促進在美專業人士的交流,並積極參與台灣產業界溝通與合作,期能促進台美雙方的交流並互相成長。TPA在台灣扮演平台的角色,協助台灣產業界尋找資源並建立公司合作關係。與會一開始分別是台美二邊專業人士簡短自我介紹與各藥廠/生技公司代表簡介該公司發展方向,有的公司專精於小分子藥物,有的專攻蛋白質生物藥物研發。這次台美雙方的會面意義重大,也為將來合作管道開啟新的契機。


討論一開始著重在 Contract Manufacturing Organization (CMO)CMO 內容包含了藥物穩定性測試. 技術轉移以及藥物製造生產等。台灣產業也有開發臨床新藥,希望能找合作夥伴分擔風險共同開發新藥 (co development, or license out)。若國外廠商有好的藥,台灣藥廠也願意加入授權陣容共同研發 (license in)。台灣藥廠代表提及由於美國產業發展相對台灣先進也有較多的資源,而台灣的廠商雖然有心發展,但卻在具體方向打進美國市場上有些迷惑,因此美國的專業人士可以給出實質建言並提供完整製程或測試上的規劃。

     此外雙方也就風險議題有深入討論。與會專家指出,國際合作上往往會忽視淺在的風險,再加上時間、地理隔閡、語言文化上的差異等更會增加了溝通上的困難,然而也因為雙方在合作認知上有落差,導致合作計畫執行上有許多困難,一旦有一方因故取消協議,會立即造成合作上的延宕。另外討論議題也觸及了法規與早期界定市場需求等,雙方希望在將來能夠有更多溝通的管道。(圖與文:玉山科協提供)
