This project investigates: (1) recent changes in the nature and strength of the links between academic research and industrial innovation in various industries, (2) differences among small, medium-sized and large firms in the extent to which their innovations are based on recent academic research and in the ways in which they tap into, use, and interact with academic research, (3) differences between U.S. and foreign firms in the extent to which their innovations in recent years have been based on academic research, (4) factors associated with the successful transfer to industry of the knowledge and know how resulting from research carried out by universities, and (5) factors leading academic researchers to do work regarded by firms as being significant contributions to their product and process innovations. The purpose is to shed new light on each of these important topics. Building on our previous work in this area, data from firms in the information processing, electronics, chemical, instruments, pharmaceutical, metals, and petroleum industries is collected and analyzed as well as data/information from a sample of academic researchers who have been cited by firms in these industries as having made particularly significant contributions to their product and process innovations. Based on detailed data of this sort, statistical analyses will be carried out, the results of which should be of use to decision makers attempting to increase the economic payoff from the nation's academic research.

该项目调查：（1）各行业学术研究与产业创新之间联系的性质和强度的近期变化，（2）小型、中型和大型企业之间的差异，即其创新基于近期学术研究的程度以及它们利用、使用学术研究和与学术研究互动的方式，（3）美国和外国企业近年来的创新基于学术研究的程度的差异，（4）与创新相关的因素 大学研究成果成功向行业转移的知识和技术；(5) 促使学术研究人员开展被企业视为对其产品和工艺创新做出重大贡献的工作的因素。 目的是为这些重要主题提供新的见解。 基于我们之前在该领域的工作，收集和分析了来自信息处理、电子、化学、仪器、制药、金属和石油行业公司的数据，以及来自学术研究人员样本的数据/信息，这些行业的公司引用这些研究人员对其产品和工艺创新做出了特别重大的贡献。 基于此类详细数据，将进行统计分析，其结果应该对试图增加国家学术研究的经济回报的决策者有用。
