- The great increase in number of disclosures with the OTL almost exactly coincides with the start of the Medical Device Network (later to become Biodesign)
- As the number of “active participants: (i.e., speakers, directors, teachers…) increases, the number of disclosures increase.

Why is Kauffman Focusing on Postdocs?
“The critical role that scientists play in our economy is compromised because faculty, graduate students and postdocs do not have a base level understanding of commercialization to empower them to recognize and advance their own innovations.”
Lesa Mitchell, VP, Kauffman Advancing Innovation
![Page 40: © 2007 by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation. All rights reserved. “Every individual that we can inspire, that we can guide, that we can help to start](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081508/5697bf951a28abf838c90820/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)

Postdoctoral Researchers – a Quandary
Postdocs are vital to the
scientific and clinical research
engine
They are 1st authors on 43% of
research papers (Science)
Many grants to PI’s are based
on postdoc research, postdocs
do bulk of research grant
writing
Postdocs are tied to the lab bench, rarely get exposure to entrepreneurship and translational research education on campus
Their PI often can’t evaluate their own research for commercial/translational potential
1 of 10 postdocs seeking an academic career get a faculty position, yet many postdocs struggle with making the transition to industry (NPA)
The Promise The Challenge
