Last month, The Office of Innovation and Commercialization hosted a presentation by Sundeep Mattamana, PhD, MBA, Executive Director for Technology Development and Transfer: “Navigating Invention Disclosures.” He discussed identifying issues, the submission filing process and guidelines, and the benefits of commercialization.
At the end of the session, the office presented patent awards to William (Sam) Fagg, PhD; Rong Fang, MD, PhD, MS; Edward Kraft; and Christopher Zahner, MD. Congratulations!
