Project builds a bridge between research, business (Kansas City Star)

Are you looking for a new genetically engineered mouse? Maybe you are seeking a new imaging technique to detect heart disease.

Entrepreneurs or large companies seeking inventions to drive the next blockbuster product and scientists seeking to advance their research have a new way to discover these and other intriguing technologies.

An offshoot of the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation on Tuesday unveiled a revamped version of its iBridge project. At the heart of the initiative is a Web site, www.ibridgenetwork.org, that provides searchable and clear descriptions of university innovations and how they can be used to advance other research or develop commercial products.
