How much of that goes to the actual researchers vs the school?

Thanks for the informative response! Do you know how expensive clinical trials would be for this kind of drug?

The nytimes article mentions:

"The research was paid for by the National Institutes of Health and the German government (some co-authors work at the University of Bonn). Northeastern University holds a patent on the method of producing drugs and licensed the patent to a private company, NovoBiotic Pharmaceuticals, in Cambridge, Mass., which owns the rights to any compounds produced. Dr. Lewis is a paid consultant to the company."

If the research was paid for by the National Institutes of Health, why is the patent privately owned? This does not seem fair to taxpayers.

Income equality helps businesses and the economy grow. Consider the extreme case of inequality where all the wealth is concentrated in just a few people... there'd be no market for Uber.

This is bogus. Imagine how much more valuable Uber would be if 100% of people could afford to ride them on a regular basis.

Where's the data?

Yes, or maybe something like a plasma actuator.

And 3 nurses died from the same treatment center a few days ago.

Crunchbase isn't the most reliable, so I was wondering if they surveyed their companies, etc.

I hear this a lot, but I'm not convinced that most successful companies pivot. Is there any data to back this up?

How did you (yummyfajitas too) find these funds? I'd love to find a small algo shop but don't know where to start looking.
