Technology Transfer

Welcome to the TDC!

We work with research scientists and clinicians at the University Health Network (UHN) to create new intellectual property and advance it towards innovative commercial applications.

Our office works with investigators in each of the following UHN research facilities:

 
Ontario Cancer Institute at Princess Margaret Hospital
Toronto General Research Institute at Toronto General Hospital
Toronto Western Research Institute at Toronto Western Hospital

The mandate of the UHN office of Technology Development & Commercialization (TDC) is to facilitate the identification and development towards practical applications of research discoveries with new product potential.  As such, our office is responsible for establishing effective partnership arrangements with the private sector for the purposes of both knowledge transfer and technology licensing.
