Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date May 7, 1998
Report No. RCED-98-126
Subject
Summary:

The Bayh-Dole Act requires GAO to review periodically chapter 18 of title 35 of the U.S. Code, which promotes the use of federally funded inventions by small businesses and nonprofit groups. The act allows nonprofit groups, such as universities, to retain title to and market the inventions they created using federal research funds. The act also allows federal agencies to grant exclusive licenses for federally owned inventions to provide more incentive to businesses. This report provides information on (1) the administration of the Bayh-Dole Act by the eight largest federal agencies that fund research and development, (2) the administration of the Bayh-Dole Act by 10 of the largest U.S. research universities, and (3) the impact of the Bayh-Dole Act, largely on the basis of annual surveys of research universities conducted by the Association of University Technology Managers.
