Knowledge Transfer Goals A National Science Foundation Science and - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Knowledge Transfer Goals A National Science Foundation Science and Technology Center • Knowledge transfer is critical to the growth of the Center and to maximize the scientific and societal impact • Support the sharing of data, knowledge, information and the application of new technology • Implement effective mechanisms and two-way communication channels between Center members, partners, and the public • Strong founding partnerships; additional participants and partners need to continually be identified to reach the full potential for technological development and innovation • d to maximize the scientific and societal impact • Support the sharing of data, knowledge, information and the application of new technology

KT Tactics A National Science Foundation Science and Technology Center • Tactical approach: engage, involve and impact organizations and individuals through both direct and indirect channels • Combination of interactive knowledge transfer channels aimed at developing a well-known dynamic center that adapts overtime

Target Outcome 1 A National Science Foundation Science and Technology Center • Dissemination and use of BioXFEL knowledge, web tools, software, data and technology through two-way communication channels engaging target audiences – 75 unique downloads in year 1, increasing to 150/yr – 6 transfer of tools to non-members – 30 papers from Annual BioXFEL International Conference

Target Outcome 2 A National Science Foundation Science and Technology Center • Attract new participants to initiate and share innovations, import new ideas and develop new partnerships – 1 user software/instrumentation workshop – collaborate to expand facilities at LCLS

Target Outcome 3 A National Science Foundation Science and Technology Center • Signed agreements with industrial affiliates – 3 agreements in year 1; then 2 per year

Target Outcome 4 A National Science Foundation Science and Technology Center • Meaningful Public Education – 3 annual public presentations/displays with survey follow-up

Target Outcome 5 A National Science Foundation Science and Technology Center • Adoption of new BioXFEL-developed technology by industry – 2 License and/or technology transfer agreements over 5 years
