Technology (knowledge) transfer world-wide
After working for many years with monoclonal antibodies in the Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, I became interested in how medical research is translated into social and economic benefit. I have worked in industry, charities, universities and governmental bodies, supporting academics who want to commercialise their research. My final full-time job was as Director of Research Services and Technology Transfer for Cambridge University.
