ANY invention made by our researchers alone, using university administered
space or other resources, including sponsored programs, belongs to the
university.  If the invention is joint, we will share ownership.

Drug companies like to claim all inventions made with any relation to their
products, but there is no reason to capitulate.  It IS important, however,
to reassure the company that you have no designs on intellectual property
they already own.
