UNIVERSITY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY: A SOURCE OF FINANCE AND IMPACT
Book ID/图书代码: 05930013B61321
English Summary/英文概要: The traditional role of the university has been to teach and conduct original research, but this situation is changing. As governments judge universities on new criteria - including the ’impact’ they have - and as universities are driven to search for finance from new sources, those that run universities are increasingly looking to exploit the intellectual property created by their researchers to help deliver this impact and income. How this should be done, and whether it should be done at all, is subject to much debate. The key issues are: - What constitutes intellectual property? - Do academics or universities own IP? - Does the commercialisation of IP impact academic freedom? - How can IP best be exploited and who should be financially rewarded when it is? - What assistance can governments and other bodies provide? This book investigates these issues. After a review of how the current situation came to be, the views and experiences of a range of experts are presented, including those of a former high court judge, a senior lawyer, a patent attorney and professionals involved in technology transfer. The contributors examine whether the roles of higher education institutions have changed, what academics and universities should be doing, and how technology transfer can be made more effective and efficient. To conclude, a provocative look at the ethics of the situation is presented. This insightful and thought-provoking book will help readers to understand more about an increasingly important aspect of academia and business.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 大学的传统角色被认为是教学和从事研究性工作,但是现在,这种情况正在改变。随着政府对大学订下新的标准——它们的影响力——当大学被驱动去搜索新的资金来源,那些正在运行的大学越来越多的寻求利用那些研究人员的知识产权来实现影响力和收入的机会。怎么能这样做,是否应该这样做,这个问题受到很多争论。问题的关键是:构成知识产权的是什么?——学者还是大学自己的IP?——IP的商业性质影响了学术的自由化?——怎样最好的利用IP,谁应该得到金钱奖励?——政府和其他机构可以提供哪些援助?这本书就在探讨这些问题。在回顾了现状是怎样形成后,一些专业人士提出了建议和经验,包括那些参与了技术转让的前高等法院法官、资深律师、专利律师和专业人士。参与者们考察了高等教育机构的角色是否改变 了,学者和大学应该做些什么,以及怎样让技术转让更加有效和高效。总而言之,一个对现在情形的道德的挑衅已经出现了。这本见地发人深省的书帮助读者更多的了解学术界和商界的一个日益重要的方面。(LNL)
