The New Impact Factor: Leveraging Your IP for Recognition and Funding
It’s no longer just about publication impact factors. Patents, licenses, and other forms of IP are increasingly considered in grant applications, tenure decisions, and promotions. The University of Tennessee Research Foundation (UTRF) invites faculty, postdocs, and students to join us for a session on learning how to leverage your IP to amplify your research impact and career trajectory.
Date: Thursday, April 24th, 2025
Time: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM
Location: 910 Madison Avenue, Room 502
Whether you’re a new researcher gearing up for funding or refining your filings, this discussion is tailored for you.
We’ll delve into:
- IP as a new metric for research impact
- Growing use of IP metrics in grants, tenure, and promotions
- Universities increasingly prioritize IP revenue over publication counts when allocating resources.
Please note: This is an in-person event only and will not be offered via Zoom.
Light refreshments will be served.
