The Office of Innovation & Strategic Partnership’s (OISP) mission is to accelerate innovative and impactful life science solutions for the patient. To achieve this mission, OISP believes in synergistic collaborations with any entity that shares our “4 Win” Philosophy:

• Win for the Inventor
• Win for the industry/investor
• Win for the institution

And…

• Critical to this, there must be a win for the PATIENT!
