Project Overview
Goal: list of all universities and # of patents each university and patent licensing

AUTM?
What to get from other people
Avesh has clinical trial data on wiki and bulk drive (FDA Trials Data), need to build it into normal form, use clinical trials data to rank R&D engagement of universities, will be building up portfolios of different types of companies
Marcela is cleaning up patent data
Catherine has zip codes of medical centers, use to look through patent data
Questions
- How innovative are universities compared to publicly-traded firms, etc.? (firms: 100 active patents at any given time)
- How do universities license?
- What does the average portfolio look like for universities? (compared to publicly traded, VC-backed, etc)
- What can explain the differences in rankings? (size, quality of universities, TTOs and quality/experience of workers - searched LinkedIns, geography, entrepreneurship programs, NIH/NSF grants)
To Do
1. lit review ACADEMIC LIT look at for 1-2 days look for holistic picture, what has/hasn’t been done? what are the questions people are asking?
2. look at patent data, determine how to find universities in patent database: board of regents, universities in patent data (find patterns associated with university assignees)
