  Technology Development Program

The Technology Development Program, formerly the BioScience Innovation Fund, provides funding for technologies that have a clear path to commercial viability and/or startup investment. Through this program, OHSU invests a limited amount of money in certain technologies to achieve specific milestones.

  • The technologies are recommended by TRC based on intellectual property position and potential for commercial opportunity.
  • The program provides up to $75,000 to demonstrate proof of principle, conduct key experiments and animal trials, or achieve other necessary milestones.
  • The Advisory Committee (link to Advisory Committee webpage) then makes funding recommendations to the Vice President for Research who makes the final selection of project to be funded.
