Business and Academia New Millennium, New Attitude?

摘要

In 1996, Analytical Chemistry chronicled how six academic professors pursued a commercial venture outside the laboratory walls of their respective universities. Those professors often had to deal with issues such as allocation of research time, patent and licensing rights for their technology, profit distribution, discouragement from their universities, and, ultimately, scrutiny from their peers. Analytical Chemistry revisited some of those same professors, along with some others, and asks what has changed for academics venturing into the business world.
