Abstract
The current academic and business landscape does not provide a clear path for doctoral trainees graduating. Moreover, the fundamental need of the hour is diversification of the workforce where PhD graduates need to be trained to do more beyond basic scientific research. One of the possible paths that is now becoming popular as science enters its translational phase is research commercialization and technology transfer. This short article provides an comprehensive overview of the technology transfer field and possible paths trainees can take to position themselves as a successful technology transfer professional.
