5 Boston University is The 4th largest private university in the United States, with: 16,000+ undergraduates 12,000+ graduate students Faculty Made up of 17 colleges and schools, including: Medicine Law Management Engineering Public Health Education Communications One of the largest international student populations with 28% of students university -wide from more than 100 countries Page - 5

6 A research institution at the scientific forefront 2008 Nobel Prize winner (shared) in Chemistry Osamu Shimomura, Ph.D. Over 1,000 sponsored research grants (NIH, DOD, DOE, etc) in 2006 with a particular of biomedical research and extensive new facilities MIT $640M Harvard $480M BU $370M One of 10 University centers in the US to receive Phase 1 funding from the Wallace H. Coulter Foundation Translational Research Partnership in Biomedical Engineering Partner with Fraunhofer Gesellschaft to create the BU-Fraunhofer Alliance for Medical Devices Additional programs: Ignition Awards, NIH CTSA, Photonics Center, CIMIT Page - 6

7 Healthcare Innovation Cycle Impact (Commercialize) Products/ Services Implement Best Practices Impact (Disseminate) Actual Standard of Care Innovation: A process by which an unmet need is resolved by stimulating and then translating ideas and/or inventions into sustainable products or services. Proof of Value Improve Proof of Principle Insight & Ideas Challenges & Needs Invent Import Inform Enabling Technologies Page - 7

8 Healthcare Innovation Cycle Unaware, Don t See Relevance Too Expensive Products/ Services Regulatory Wall Lost IP, No FTO Best Practices Resistance to Change In reality, many innovations often get stalled or derailed for reasons that could have been anticipated and avoided Proof of Value No Appreciation Actual Standard of Care Proof of Principle NIH, Never Knew Too Busy, Too Good, Too Special Challenges & Needs Not Shared Missing Skills Enabling Technologies Page - 8

9 Healthcare Innovation Cycle Products/ Services Best Practices Actual Standard of Care CIMIT focuses on the process, helping uncover needs, form teams, then anticipate and navigate the innovation cycle to maximize & speed impact Proof of Value Proof of Principle Challenges & Needs Enabling Technologies Page - 9
