From the bench to a product: academics and entrepreneurship

Other Titles

Abstract

Mike Adang describes his experience in translating research discoveries to a product via a new company that he founded: Insectigen. He discussed ethical conflicts between the role of the entrepreneur—which can be time-consuming—and the role of the pro­fessor with obligations to students, to postdocs, to research colleagues, and to others in the university milieu.
