TANFORD, Calif.--A $150 million donation made recently to Stanford University by Jim Clark, founder of Silicon Graphics and Netscape, was a "signal to other donors that an exciting thing is happening here," said James Spudich, director of Bio-X, Stanford’s fledgling program for bioengineering, biomedicine, and biosciences. Clark’s gift will fully fund construction of the Clark Center for Biomedical Engineering and Sciences, which will serve as a hub for the campus-wide, interdisciplinary program.
