Technology Development & Transfer Committee<br />

How to put the “Translational” into your research<br />

Chair: Anna Amar, NIDDK<br />

The times – they are a changing. Have you noticed <strong>NIH</strong>’s new logo: “<strong>NIH</strong>... Turning<br />

Discovery into Health”? There’s now an institute that focuses on translational research<br />

(NCATS). A recent Presidential Memo mandates that <strong>NIH</strong> accelerate the pace at which<br />

scientific breakthroughs are transferred from the lab to the commercial marketplace. This<br />

talk is applicable to everyone involved with discovery, from fellow to PI, at every IC. Hear<br />

scientists and others from across <strong>NIH</strong> talk about how/when to:<br />

• Contact someone if you feel you have an innovation, and who<br />

• Protect and promote an invention<br />

• Consider patenting before publishing<br />

• Tap into your technology transfer office to help you translate a discovery<br />

to the market<br />

• Collaborate with/obtain materials from industry<br />

• Find enabling resources<br />

• Generate data to make your technology more attractive to a company<br />

Learn how to turn your discovery into health.<br />
