Martek Biosciences - Kingstree Corporation

Martek Biosciences, founded in 1985, began when defense and aerospace contractor Martin Marietta tasked a few scientists with studying the beneficial use of algae in long-term space flight. In the course of this project, these scientists came to believe that algae represented a virtually untapped resource that could be screened for a variety of applications to greatly benefit human health. Driven by their passion for their discoveries, these visionary scientists spun off from Martin Marietta taking with them both their algae and their body of research. There was still more to discover, more mysteries to unravel. Martek Biosciences Corporation was born.
