ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï Installs Patent Wall To Recognize Innovation

August 14, 2023

ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï recently installed a permanent wall display to recognize ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï faculty, staff and students who are discovering new technologies that help people and change the way we live. The wall highlights ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï’s patents and is located in the Pond Student Union Building just outside the ballroom.

The display shows all the patentable discoveries made as a result of ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï’s groundbreaking research. The display is expandable so there is room to add many more as ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï grows as a public research university. 

“I am proud to display the many discoveries ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï’s outstanding researchers have made and am excited for all the future additions to this wall as we continue to expand our research mission at ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï,” said ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï President Kevin Satterlee. 

Intellectual property created by ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï faculty and students is protected through patents. Universities generate knowledge and discovery that serves the public good. This is what ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï does–and does well, said Martin Blair, ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï's Vice President for Research and Economic Development

“We are excited to highlight the innovative ideas generated at ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï,” Blair said. “ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï’s innovative contributions cover a wide range of areas such as advanced energy, biomedical and life science, environmental stewardship and sustainability, humanities and the arts, and so much more. Our unique location and geography, our state and regional partnerships, and our charge as Idaho’s designated health science university position us to address some of the most complex challenges our society faces."

ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï has protected intellectual property through 14 patents. Non-provisional and  provisional patent applications are currently in place to protect an additional seven unique technologies. ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï’s issued patents and patent applications are ready to be licensed and commercialized. To learn more about the commercialization process, contact the ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï Commercialization Center administered through the ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï College of Business at /cob/business-resources/commercialization-center/
