"Zhang--who maintains he did the work independently"

But I suppose you might as well do what you can to get a slice of a multi-billion dollar pie.
- refurb 12y agoHe doesn't mean independently from the university he works at, he means independently from the other researchers who also discovered the technology.
- jforman 12y agoEither way the university owns the IP regardless of who the "inventor" on the patent is, so why is this relevant?
- refurb 12y agoBecause universities commonly provide exclusive out-licensing for the patents they own? The inventor here started his own company based on the work the university owns.
