Thesis (Ph.D.)--Harvard University, 1987.

Given the level of interaction with industry and the relative infrequence with which these risks exist among those involved in UIRs, fears that cooperation will significantly undermine traditional academic norms do not seem justified. Rather, the greatest danger is that the appearance that these risks exist will undermine public trust in the university's ability to carry out its appointed tasks. Federal and university decision makers should continue to monitor UIRs and their associated risks, and they should look for ways in which policy can maintain the benefits of UIRs while preserving the university's integrity.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 # $a The prevalence of university-industry relationships (UIRs) in the life sciences has increased over the past ten years due to rapid scientific breakthroughs and their commercial potential in biotechnology. Although many scholars have qualitatively documented the implications of these changes in the life sciences, few have attempted to measure quantitatively the extent and consequences of UIRs.
520 # $a This thesis identifies five types of relationships between academia and industry. Using data collected as part of the Harvard Project on University Industry Relationships, it empirically examines the extent of three of these types of relationships and their consequences for societal concerns about technological innovation, the training of new scientists, intellectual property rights, faculty commitment to traditional academic activities, open communication of scientific research, and the ability of universities to carry out their tasks in a disinterested manner. The three types of UIRs examined are those most likely to generate information useful to university and government decision makers through statistical analysis.

In addition, they provide opportunities to help move scientific findings with commercial potential from academia to the marketplace. However, the data do suggest the existence of a few risks to academia associated with industry involvement. Some biotechnology faculty and trainees involved in UIRs may face increased secrecy and potential conflicts of interest or commitment. $8 and \ $8 4 and \ $a The data suggest that UIRs produce a number of important benefits for society including the provision of between
