One thought on “University professors rev up efforts to commercialize research, launch startups

  1. It would be helpful for the reporter to be more specific about the campuses these scientist/entrepreneurs come from. Case in point: Prof. Ali Jafari is a professor in the School of Engineering and Technology at IUPUI here in Indianapolis. The article merely says IU, which is inaccurate. Prof. Jafari is tenured through Purdue University, but he is an employee of IU and IU got the money for his invention. Confused? Welcome to IUPUI! Your reporter can avoid inaccuracies by identifying the specific campus where the people work. For example, Prof. Zlotnik is at the Bloomington campus. Prof. Low is at Purdue’s West Lafayette campus.
