The company in detail

Profile

The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS), the State's only comprehensive academic health center, consists of  five colleges including Medicine and Pharmacy, a graduate school of biomedical sciences, six centers of excellence, and a Statewide network of regional healthcare centers. UAMS was founded in 1879 as a proprietary medical school by a group of eight physicians with 22 students and today houses over 2,500 students, 1,156 physicians and 733 medical residents and is part of the University of Arkansas System. UAMS pursues its' three-fold mission -- to teach, to search, to serve -- through graduate and post graduate  programs in the various colleges.  National Institutes of Health and other federal funding sources actively support clinical and translational research programs within the University involving medical, device  and biotechnology research initiatives though programs in the University Hospital and its' affiliated clinics.   UAMS sponsors basic and clinical research in broad areas of medicine and medical therapy.  Traditionally strong research areas include Pharmacology and Toxicology; Cancer, Myeloma & Transplantation; Eye; Neuroscience; Pediatric Health; Aging & Gerontology and Psychiatry.  The proprietary technologies from this research are actively captured for licensing opportunities and the delivery of better health.  UAMS and its affiliates have an economic impact in Arkansas of over $5 billion a year.  UAMS BioVentures serves as the Technology Licensing Office, spin-out business accelerator, and the portal to all of the University's intellectual property and economic development programs. For more information, please visit www.uams.edu/bioventures or contact Michael G. Douglas, PhD mdouglas@uams.edu or Charlie Cook at (501) 686-6696 – e-mail CACook@uams.edu

Partnering strategy/interests

The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, through its TLO UAMS BioVentures, is seeking global, commercial partners to out-license its' technology for the purpose of taking its discoveries to the world's medical and healthcare market places.
