CHRI Seminar Series: Pediatric Healthcare Innovation and Technology Transfer

Oct 01, 2018 (Mon) | 12:00 PM -1:00 PM
Alway Building, M106 : Palo Alto, CA

The pace of pediatric healthcare innovation typically lags behind adult healthcare innovation because of differences in market size and financial return. Given the challenges, Stanford Children’s Health makes a point of encouraging and supporting development of new pediatric devices, therapeutics, diagnostics, and platforms. Charlette Stallworth will discuss ways to disclose, assess, fund and commercialize inventions at SCH. Dr. James Wall will highlight inventions and inventors who enter the tech transfer process with anything from a diagram on a napkin to functioning prototypes. Attendees will depart with greater understanding of SCH tech transfer and keen desire to be involved in groundbreaking – or even incremental - innovation, which transforms pediatric healthcare.
