How Tech Transfer brings Science from the Bench to the Bedside

There are so many exciting discoveries in scientific research that could be used to cure, feed and fuel the world, but there is a giant gulf between science and business. Tech transfer aims to bridge the gap! I interviewed a number of experts in the field to tell you how. Since the first modern biotechnology company, Genentech, was founded in 1976, the biotechnology industry has grown to become one of the major engines of scientific innovation. The importance of innovation in biotechnology has brought the issues of intellectual property (IP) right and technology transfer (TT) into sharp focus.
