Answer the questions:

  1. What are the 5 top Universities in this field?
    • Correlate them with their main outputs (Data. Narratives. Tools)
    • Understand and identify cases where these universities are “experimenting” or “adopting” commons based approach. Are they adopting OA policies, for instance? Are they adopting Social Responsible License approaches?
    • Identify these cases and treat them as entities that will also be placed in our mapping device (the quadrants)
    • Identify what universities are the “Microsofts” of the field and what companies are the “IBMs” of the field (Use the questionnaire to guide your research when appropriate - Carol will select specific relevant questions)

Introduction

American universities are granted over 3,000 U.S. patents each year and maintain a portfolio of over 40,000 patents (see Owen-Smith & Powell, 2003).


Universities and R&D in Biotechnology

Note: I have bolded those projects that appear to be experimenting with commons-based approaches. From initial research, it seems that Stanford is the IBM of the university field, UC San Diego is the Microsoft

Stanford

Berkeley

    • Center for Integrative Genomics (http://cigbrowser.berkeley.edu/)
      • Collaborative project between several different departments to compare genome sequences of a wide variety of animals
    • UC Biotech.org (http://ucbiotech.org/)
      • provides educational materials on agriculture and technology
    • Graduate Group in Computational and Genomic Biology (http://computationalbiology.berkeley.edu/)
      • provides training in the intersection of computational biology and genomics
    • Berkeley Bioinformatics Open Source Project
      • Gene Ontology Project: aims to reach consistent descriptions of gene products
    • Division of Genetics, Genomics, and Development (http://mcb.berkeley.edu/)
      • studies replication, structure and evolution of genomes
    • Department of Plant and Microbial Biology (http://pmb.berkeley.edu/)
      • studies plant genomics
