Technology transfer and business/industry liaison office


The University of Wisconsin Medical School has a well-articulated research focus: developing new knowledge and translating it into solutions for improving human health. The practical applications of our discoveries have traditionally led to strong interactions with business and industry. As a result, we have a long history of sharing our successes with the private sector to further new initiatives in research and treatment. Our emphasis on technology transfer has led us to develop several liaison offices to promote interaction with industry.

Key Liaison Offices:
