I am characterizing the R&D process that brings diagnostic kits to market with a particular focus on which steps involve patent (or other IP) activity.

I keep some notes in Evernote and then transfer them to the wiki. You can view my ICP evernote collection here

Here are all my contributions to the wiki.

current goals

• Understand & document diagnostic kit development pipeline
• work on skeleton of paper, meet to lay it out next Thursday (sept 3) morning
• re-read biotech section in april ICP report; discuss w/ Carol
• write short report on diybio disruptive technologies
• write short report on BioBricks Foundation License impact

Publish report about Commons-based activity in Diagnostic Kit Sector by end of September

Reference organization strategy

• Using Zotero to organize citations
• Also available as a SIMILE citeline
• Zotero can convert references into the mediawiki citation format by drag and drop, but the family of cite templates must be installed in mediawiki; see my notes on how to install the cite templates.

Academic Papers

Until the cite templates are working, see my Zotero ICP-Biotech group library.
