By choosing from multiple areas of discipline, Spectrum members can tailor their view of science at Stanford: from ground breaking bench science to applications in new biomedical technology.
Spectrum acknowledges that technology transfer means many things: access to new knowledge; interaction with principle researchers, research fellows and students; access to central information in areas of research strength and emphasis; and coordination of outreach programs within the University, including the technology licensing process. Our goal is to increase industry's participation in the School of Medicine on all levels, across a full spectrum of biomedical research.
Spectrum includes 220 faculty members and their biomedical research, spanning 20 departments, clinical divisions, and interdepartmental programs at Stanford University.
Biotechnology, pharmaceutical and bio-device companies, industry consultants, and venture capital firms all can gain significant knowledge and establish productive partnerships through Spectrum.
