"Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"
No full textBoth spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.
Chapter 02: R. Lee Clark’s Vision for MD Anderson: A Hospital, Research Institution, and a Setting Where Everyone Belonged
No full textIn this chapter, Dr. Bowen talks about coming to work at MD Anderson, his reflections on the institution’s early days, and how MD Anderson developed both a medical and an academic character. He also discusses the institution’s organizational structure and explains why people, “Once they got to M. D. Anderson, they never wanted to work anyplace else.”https://openworks.mdanderson.org/mchv_interviewchapters/1674/thumbnail.jp

Endogenous R&D Spillovers and Industrial Research Productivity
No full textThis paper explores the implications of a simple model of learning and innovation by firms. In this model R&D spillovers are partly determined by firms, rather than by the given economic environment. According to this approach the full effect of spillovers on research productivity of firms exceeds the structural effect because it includes an active learning' response of firms to new information. Furthermore, effective spillovers grow faster or slower than potential spillovers, depending on the returns to scale of production processes for learning and invention. The empirical work is based on a sample of R&D laboratories in the chemicals, machinery, electrical equipment, and transportation equipment industries. I estimate negative binomial regressions for the number of patents as a function of academic and industrial spillover pools, learning expenditures and internal research expenditures. The findings are consistent with the view that learning expenditures transmit the effect of spillovers. I also perform tobit, ordered probit and grouped probit estimation of learning effort. I find that learning effort increases in response to industrial and academic R&D spillovers. Lastly, academic spillovers appear to have a more pervasive effect on R&D than do industrial spillovers. Overall these results suggest a sequence of events underlying learning and innovation, with learning responding to opportunities, innovation responding to learning and own R&D, and a stream of innovations leading to the accumulation of new product introductions that ultimately are reflected in the value of enterprise.

Dear Dillon:

I.
Thank you for your letter of the seventh. I am cer¬ tain that Doug Dillon has been thinking along the lines of what aid we can give in fostering the development of trade between Japan and her neighbors.
r
Incidentally, one of nay friends here tells me that a new
air freight system is being set up which will insure
Japan's goods being delivered anywhere in the world
within a couple of days at a cost, when all things are
considered, not appreciably higher than freight ship-
naents. That presents another problena to the econonaists
but should stimulate Japan's industrial talents consider-

R&D Investments with Competitive Interactions
No full textIn this article we develop a model to analyze patent-protected R&D investment projects when there is (imperfect) competition in the development and marketing of the resulting product. The competitive interactions that occur substantially complicate the solution of the problem since the decision maker has to take into account not only the factors that affect her/his own decisions, but also the factors that affect the decisions of the other investors. The real options framework utilized to deal with investments under uncertainty is extended to incorporate the game theoretic concepts required to deal with these interactions. Implementation of the model shows that competition in R&D, in general, not only increases production and reduces prices, but also shortens the time of developing the product and increases the probability of a successful development. These benefits to society are countered by increased total investment costs in R&D and lower aggregate value of the R&D investment projects.
