FISCAL from the Directors FISCAL From The Directors Dear Colleagues, Advisory Boards for Fiscal 2011 This year marks a decade of strong commitment to technology transfer and economic development at the University of Illinois. It is fitting that this is also the year the Board of Trustees created Urbana the Office of the Vice President for Research and appointed Larry Schook as Interim Vice President, enabling the next step in the evolution of our offices. Bruce Vojak, Chair Van Anderson Advocacy and value creation have been the hallmarks of our Hans Blaschek accomplishments this past year as demonstrated in each Scott Carney initiative and achievement. Proof of concept funding programs Albert Feng on both campuses will help attract licensing partners for our Merle Giles high potential technologies.

Jozef Kokini Philip Krein The University of Illinois at Chicago, together with the NIH, Steven Leigh became the first in the world to share patents with Unitaid’s Paul Magelli Medicines Patent Pool, which makes new medicines more Romana Nowak affordable in developing countries. The Urbana campus Michael Philpott developed a unique label license for MIDA boronate technology Jennifer Quirk that enables Sigma-Aldrich and other suppliers to offer its Molly Tracy customers a royalty free license to the University’s intellectual David Weightman property, thus encouraging broad adoption of the technology in Huimin Zhao multiple industries.

Our Offices Sue Fullman licensed a record number of start-ups this year, and in a four Dibyen Majumdar week period three start-ups from the Urbana campus raised more Bellur Prabhakar than $50 million in funding. Brenda Russell Larry Tobacman As always, none of our accomplishments would be possible Sol Shatz without the University’s stellar faculty and their willingness to Christine Wu engage in the technology transfer process. And we continue to be grateful for the support of University administration. There are exciting initiatives underway that indicate the coming year will be one of continued growth. We look forward to partnering with you.

Schook Named Interim Vice Stanford v Roche President for Research On June 6, 2011, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its decision in Stanford v. Roche, a case involving a dispute over the ownership In November 2010 the Board of Trustees established the office of several patents related to HIV-detection kits. The decision of the vice president for research by re-titling the Vice President analyzed the question of invention ownership under the federal for Technology and Economic Development and expanding that Bayh-Dole Act (“the Act”), and may have an impact on research portfolio to include important responsibilities for the University’s universities, such as ours, which commercialize federally funded vast $725 million-a-year, externally funded research enterprise. inventions. President Michael J. Hogan appointed Lawrence B. Schook to serve as Interim Vice President for Research. The Supreme Court limited its review to the issue of whether the Bayh-Dole Act automatically vested title in federally funded Dr. Schook will facilitate collaborative research opportunities, inventions to Stanford. It held that the Act does not automatically streamline related policies and procedures, and act as a coherent, vest title to inventions in the federal contractor. The Court ruled unified voice for U of I research. that the Act did not contain adequate language to explicitly vest title to federally-funded inventions to universities and other federal contractors. This non-explicit language could not displace the Rankings and Recognition presumption that an inventor owns his/ her inventions. It is noteworthy that the Court said that it’s holding did not undermine The University’s technology transfer and economic development the scheme of the Act, whereby federal contractors may elect to system was nicely acknowledged this past year. retain title in inventions and commercialize the inventions.

INTRODUCTION This Supplement to Aerospace Medicine andBioIogylists 217 reports, articles and other documents announced during August 1987 in Scientific and TechnicalAerospace Reports (STAR)or in International Aerospace Abstracts (IAA). The first issue of the bibliography was published in July 1964. In its subject coverage, Aerospace Medicine andBioIogyconcentrates on the biological, physiolog- ical, psychological, and environmental effects to which man is subjected during and following simulated or actual flight in the Earth’s atmosphere or in interplanetary space. References describing similar effects of biological organisms of lower order are also included. Such related topics as sanitary problems, pharmacology, toxicology, safety and survival, life support systems, exobiology, and person- nel factors receive appropriate attention. In general, emphasis is placed on applied research, but references to fundamental studies and theoretical principles related to experimental development also qualify for inclusion. Each entry in the bibliography consists of a bibliographic citation accompanied in most cases by an abstract.

It happens when a medical student learns a skill or concept that will be fundamental to her work as a physician in the future; when a patient receives high-quality care that puts him back on the road to health; or when a research team publishes the important fi ndings of their study. Every day, the donors to Illinois Medicine make a difference as well. Whether young or old, individuals or organizations, with gifts large or small, our supporters make a direct impact on the quality of the education and care we provide and the research we conduct. This report showcases a few of the many ways our donors have made a difference in the lives of our students and patients, and the Honor Roll at the end of this publication gratefully acknowledges all the donors who have made contributions to Illinois Medicine between July 1, 2008, and June 30, 2009.
