Please note that we have a new site: LifeScienceHistory.com, "Where history is made daily" under development and
delayed by COVID-19, to be launched in 2023 replacing TexasLifeScience.com. Regrettably, we are working with reduced
staffing and the current industry directory is no longer being maintained, but will be replaced with a new and improved
directory upon the launch of the new site. We apologize for the inconvenience.

ViaGen was founded in Austin, Texas in January 2002 to provide commercial bovine, equine, and porcine gene banking, cloning, and genomics services. The cloning technologies we use were developed in part by scientists at Texas A&M University.
In 2003, ViaGen acquired ProLinia of Athens, Georgia. This acquisition doubled our cloning capacity, gave us the ability to produce clones from cells obtained from carcasses, and provided rights to cloning technologies developed by the Roslin Institute of Edinburgh, Scotland. | |
