Catalyzing Innovation in Phase I Centers for Chemical Innovation (CCIs): Building Successful Pathways for Research to Innovation (R2I) Translation

国家大学发明家和创新者联盟(NCIIA)得到这笔赠款的支持，旨在从CCI第一阶段的主要参与者、教师、博士后和学生的角度探索对研究翻译的态度、看法和信念，并利用这些信息为CCI第一阶段中心开发和实施有效的研究创新翻译计划提供支持。该项目将侧重于第一阶段化学创新中心(CCI)的研究团队，并将包括CCI第一阶段中心参与的研讨会前和研讨会后的研究。研究CCI参与者对R2I的看法将提供洞察力，可用于制定更有效的教学方法和制度政策，以加强创新。关于协作研究环境中的R2I过程的知识将被总结并广泛传播给其他学术受众。还将确定、编纂和传播机构间知识产权开发和所有权的现行做法。同时，将支持CCI第一阶段研究团队使用和部署有效的工具和流程，以确定和验证其研究产生的潜在创新，并为该研究制定翻译计划。

The National Collegiate Inventors and Innovators Alliance (NCIIA) is supported with this grant to explore attitudes, perceptions, and beliefs regarding research translation from the perspective of CCI Phase 1 key participants, faculty, post-docs and students and to utilize this information in providing support for CCI Phase 1 Centers to develop and implement effective research to innovation translation plans. This project will focus on the Phase I Centers for Chemical Innovation (CCI) research teams and will include studies both pre and post workshop involvement of the CCI Phase 1 Centers. Research about CCI participants' perspectives on R2I will provide insight that can be used to develop more effective instructional approaches and institutional policies to enhance innovation. Knowledge about the R2I process in collaborative research settings will be summarized and disseminated broadly to other academic audiences. Current practices for inter-institutional intellectual property development and ownership will also be identified, codified and disseminated. At the same time, Phase I CCI research teams will be supported in the use and deployment of effective tools and processes for defining and validating potential innovations arising from their research and developing translation plans for that research.
