This chapter examines the development of a new market-logic practice in academic science, namely faculty entrepreneurship in the biosciences. It begins by reviewing the origins of this practice, then tracks its early development as well as limits to its growth and spread. It then goes on to examine policy decisions that removed these limits and replaced them with incentives, and considers how political concern with the economic impact of innovation contributed to these decisions. The chapter concludes with a look at the subsequent takeoff of this practice, followed by a discussion of the conditions that appear to have been necessary for this takeoff to occur.Less

Promoting the responsible conduct of research needs to be an ongoing process not a one-time educational activity. The NIH recommends that RCR training should minimally occur at every career stage. However, it is not only important to do continual training and discussion of RCR for developmental reasons, but also because the scientific environment changes. New methods, discoveries and technologies demand new considerations for what it means to be a responsible researcher. This chapter discusses some of the emerging areas that are likely to raise additional scientific integrity issues including such developments as an increase in the collection of biological specimens to supplement social science data, increasing research with international and other culturally diverse populations, new technologies for collecting and storing data, the changing publication and data sharing environment, and faculty engagement in entrepreneurial activities.Less
