The Biomedical Research Foundation of Northwest Louisiana (BRF) is an independent, nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization established in 1986. The Foundation was founded through a recommendation from the Mt. Auburn Study, an economic development report that identified new initiatives to diversify the Shreveport-Bossier economy. Seed funding for the creation of the Foundation was provided by the Caddo Parish Commission and the Shreveport Chamber of Commerce. With 51 employees and a volunteer board of directors, the Foundation manages a $13 million operating budget and $63 million in assets. In fulfilling its mission, the Foundation supports these four initiatives:
InterTech Science Park for life science and related technologies
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Imaging Center and Southern Isotopes
Education and Workforce Development programs
Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center in Shreveport (LSUHSC-S) support
