The research industry is experiencing a digital revolution and a fundamental shift in the expectations of the tech transfer office. Many are finding themselves in the role of creating programs to foster a supportive environment and contribute to attracting and retaining faculty members and graduate students.

Our speaker and customer at Washington University in St. Louis, Dr. Nichole Mercier, was the pioneer in instituting the Women in Innovation and Technology (WIT) Program so that her office could better engage female faculty and post-docs in technology transfer related activities.
