Historically, public-sector researchers have performed the upstream, basic research that elucidated underlying mechanisms of disease and identified promising points intervention, whereas corporate downstream, applied resulting in discovery drugs for treatment diseases carried out development activities to bring them market. However, boundaries between roles public private sectors shifted substantially since dawn biotechnology era, sector now has a much more direct role applied-research phase...
On 12 December 1980, in the waning days of lame duck session 96th Congress, U.S. Senate passed University and Small Business Patent Procedures Act, now known as Bayh-Dole a seemingly obscure act that allowed universities to claim title inventions had been made with federal funding. It is unlikely many present day realized what dramatic impact would have. Data clearly show it played critical role rejuvenating entire economic system, transforming from manufacturing base an innovation base. Yet...
Analysis of international public-sector contributions to Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drugs vaccines allows for a more thorough examination the global biomedical innovation ecosystem by institution origin. Using new existing methods, we have identified 364 FDA-approved approved from 1973 2016 discovered in whole or part Public Sector Research Institutions (PSRIs) worldwide. We product-specific intellectual property small molecule biologic FDA Orange Book, our peer network,...
Background: Evaluation of citrate and oxalate in 24-hour urine specimens can help determine the cause stone formation which may guide treatment as well urolithiasis prophylaxis. We validated measurement both these analytes using third-party reagents on Roche Cobas® c502 instrument. Methods: Patient (n=41 for n=46 oxalate) were collected containers processed analysis a instrument an enzymatic method. Imprecision was determined by testing quality control (QC) material twice per day 20 days...
This paper introduces the Designing for Extended Latency (DELAY) Framework meant to inspire new systems that support social interaction in high-latency settings such as interplanetary communication, intermittent internet access, and time-zone incompatibilities. The framework includes six dimensions: Goal, Communication Genre, Sequencing, Cardinality, Mutability, Responsiveness. We describe iterative design process used create Framework, well three novel prototypes designed increase...
Prior research has established the feasibility of conducting online interviews and observations, yet there is limited guidance in how to interact with participants when fully mediated screen-sharing video. This study, conducted during early phases COVID-19, included 15 volunteer tweet annotators working an emergency response organization. method contribution uses cues-related surveillance theories reveal challenges best practices asking share their screen, be on video, participate a...
In his keynote speech to the 1998 Annual Meeting of Association University Technology Managers (AUTM), late and much-lamented Michael Hooker, Chancellor North Carolina, Chapel Hill, brought house down when he told 1,000 or so academic technology transfer officers assembled: "Go back your universities tell Chancellors, Presidents Provosts, I said them you're doing God's work." This may be last recorded occasion in which someone stature, whom we would all respect, has complimented managers public.
The formation of spinouts to transition university invention marketplace innovation is an increasingly common form technology transfer. Utilizing production and network theory this study analyzes the impact on academic productivity. Specifically, investigates following research questions: How, if at all, does a inventor’s participation with spinout his/her publication productivity what are implications for models? Through analysis survey archival data 57 firms representing all (in time...
