ANNOUNCING NEW IBB PROGRAM: COMMERCIALIZE IT!
In collaboration with the Houston Technology Center (HTC), the Rice Alliance and the Rice Office of Technology Transfer (OTT), IBB will pilot the "Commercialize It" Program in 2008 to help IBB researchers commercialize their ideas. For this program, HTC, the Rice Alliance and the OTT will make one or more of their bioscience and bioengineering commercializing specialists available for a 2-hour period on one Thursday each month to discuss and evaluate commercialization options for devices and processes that are emerging from the IBB with any faculty, staff or senior students. At these sessions, additional or subsequent meetings can be set up as necessary. These will be informal sessions with either one-on-one or small group discussions. Please come by Keck 115 on those Thursdays, have a coffee and chat with commercializing experts! Click here for bios on these experts.
IBB Mock NIH Study Section
IBB will be running another mock NIH study section. In this program, faculty are invited to submit proposals for a review process similar to a NIH study section. Faculty will receive written reviews and also are invited to observe the panel discussion of their proposal. This is intended to both provide feedback prior to proposal submission and also provide insight into the inner workings of a study section.
