December 14, 2011
A Kansas Bioscience Authority committee recommended on Tuesday that a $600,000 investment in a Lenexa medical device company be considered by the authority’s full board.

The committee discussed investing $600,000 with Spinal Simplicity, LLC, of Lenexa. Founded by a physician and an entrepreneur, the company has developed a medical device for spinal fusion as an alternative to open spinal surgery, according to its website.

The committee passed the recommendation along to the full board without a recommendation of approval or denial.
