ObjectivesEducation in regional anaesthesia covers several complex and diverse areas, from theoretical aspects to procedural skills, professional behaviours, simulation, curriculum design and assessment. The objectives of this study were to summarise these topics and to prioritise these topics in order of research importance.DesignElectronic structured Delphi questionnaire over three rounds.SettingInternational.Participants38 experts in regional anaesthesia education and training, identified through the American Society of Regional Anesthesia Education Special Interest Group research collaboration.Results82 topics were identified and ranked in order of prioritisation. Topics were categorised into themes of simulation, curriculum, knowledge translation, assessment of skills, research methodology, equipment and motor skills. Thirteen topics were ranked as essential research priority, with four topics each on simulation and curriculum, three topics on knowledge translation, and one topic each on methodology and assessment.ConclusionsResearchers and educators can use these identified topics to assist in planning and structuring their research and training in regional anaesthesia education.

In this age of technology-led development and stiff international competition over Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs), developing countries, with their limited financial capabilities, face the challenge of creating appropriate environment that could facilitate the creation and commercialisation of technologies. The recognition of poor scientific outputs as a hindrance to the growth of domestic industry has brought research on the development agenda. This article focuses on university–industry research collaborations as one of the ways to kick-start innovation-led economic growth in India. It explores the evolution of relevant policy paradigm in India and presents the relevant highlights of National IPR Policy 2016. It identifies the impediments in the way of creative university–industry collaborations and offers solutions to attain optimum synergy between the academia and industry.

This chapter describes the Maryland Industrial Partnerships (MIPS) program, its genesis, operations, record, and impact. Founded in 1987, MIPS provides funding, matched by participating companies, for university-based research projects that help Maryland companies develop new products. Startup companies find the program attractive in leveraging their scarce resources in a non-dilutive, non-debt manner and effective in enlisting expert faculty and students in developing their company products. The State of Maryland finds the MIPS program attractive because of its significant economic impact and its high-multiple return of tax dollars to the State. The University System of Maryland faculty have embraced the program for the industry collaborations created and research funding provided. The effectiveness of the MIPS program is greatly enhanced by Maryland's robust innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem built up over decades, a build-up whose acceleration coincided with the 1983 creation of MIPS' parent organization, now known as the Maryland Technology Enterprise Institute.
