Seattle remains a major hub for talent in life sciences research — a burgeoning industry that faces an intense labor crunch nationwide amid rapid growth — according to a recent report published by the investment management firm CBRE.
Driving the news: Seattle came in No. 9 in CBRE’s ranking of life sciences clusters, based on cities’ jobs, local wages, cost of living and other factors.
Cities were ranked based on how their scores compared to the national averages for these variables, with Seattle scoring 109.
