Johns Hopkins University Technology Transfer Office

The purpose of the University's office of Technology Transfer is to ensure rapid transfer of Hopkins' innovations to the private sector where these discoveries can be developed for the public benefit.  The office keeps a listing of inventions and patents available for licensing (available on their website), and publishes articles relating to patenting and licensing issues and practices in conjunction with the Office of the Vice Dean for Research at the School of Medicine.

The JHM Alliance for Science and Technology Development

The JHM Alliance for Science and Technology Development (The Alliance) is the group of industry volunteers who work directly with the faculty to facilitate the transfer of research to the marketplace so that the public can benefit from these discoveries. The Alliance has broad experience and contacts in numerous biomedical industries and is generously donating its members' efforts to this endeavor.
