“…Thus, patent statistics are a good indicator of inputs into R&D expenditures. Particularly, R&D investment data on nanotechnology are incomplete due to the lack of statistical frameworks (Palmberg et al 2009). Because R&D expenditures in nanotechnology are not available for universities, in investigating the robustness of our results, we utilize a variable-R&D intensity (stock of patents obtained in the past 4 years in the field) that has been demonstrated to be highly correlated with annual R&D expenditures to measure the R&D expenditures for the universities in the field (Schilling and Phelps 2007).…”

Nanotechnology is a promising research domain with potential and enormous economic value. It is widely acknowledged that nanotechnology, as an emerging and rapidly evolving field with the multidisciplinary nature, is perceived as proximate fields of science and technology. This study provides a further description of the relationship between science and technology at macro-level. The core objective in this paper is to qualify and assess the dynamic associations between scientific activity and technological output. We attempt to illustrate how science and technology relate one another in the case of innovation system. In this paper, we take advantage of the simultaneous equations model to analyze the reciprocal dependence between science and technology. Previous studies about the relationship between science and technology infrequently adopt this model. Our result shows that there is no significant connection between R&D expenditures and actual practices of research in terms of publications and patents for the universities in zone 1 and 2. Our results provoke questions about whether policy-makers should appropriately reallocate scientific and technological resources and other R&D expenditures so as to obtain optimal allocation for resource and achieve maximum results with little effort for scientific research and innovation performance.

“…Improvement of professional performance and responsible development of nanotechnology are goals of many organizations worldwide. Facilitating cross-disciplinary research has attracted much attention in recent years, with special concerns about nanotechnology working behavior (Bonaccorsi & oma, 2007;Gulumian, Verbeek, Andraos, Sanabria & Jager, 2016;Gravina et al, 2018;Khan, 2015;Kohnen, 2018;Ma et al, 2018;Maynard & Kuempel, 2005;Mogoutov & Kahane, 2007;Palmberg, Dernis, & Miguet, 2009;Schulte et al, 2014;Youtie, Iacopetta, & Graham, 2007;Zucker & Darby, 2007).…”

Background. Organizational behavior plays a significant role in the effectiveness of enterprises specializing in nanotechnology. Its negative side – counterproductive work behavior (CWB) – has not been analyzed sufficiently in this industry. We evaluated different theoretical approaches to this problem. Objective. To estimate the predominant forms of counterproductive work behavior in relation to dimensions such as the intensity of the nanotechnology industry, seniority in the organization, and the age and gender of the subjects. Design. We used a descriptive exploratory methodology that analyzes the preponderance of counterproductive work behavior in profile companies throughout the Russian Federation. CWB was assessed through a self-report questionnaire and in-depth interview with each employee. The results were analyzed by correlation-regression analysis in SPSS. Results. We found significant correlations between the variables “intensity of the nanotechnology industry within the organization”, “seniority of employees within the organization”, “age of employees”, and the total score of CWB. Regarding the CWB dimensions, the highest average of the scores was obtained for “low level of conscientiousness” (mean = 21.75; SD = 2.9), followed closely by “low level of personal development” (mean = 20.53; SD = 3.09). Among the CWB dimensions, it seems that the conscientiousness of the employees plays a key role in the continuation of their professional activity and consequently in the increase of seniority in the organization. Conclusion. A professional difficulty can be perceived as a challenge by an employee with good physical and/or psychological resilience. Russian nanotechnology companies should evaluate their approach to dealing with employees and mitigate situations that might be unnecessarily stressful. From the data obtained through the semi-structured interview, we found that what happens in a work group is essential in the emergence of CWB. Organizations need clear policies that empower employees to deal with certain work tasks and with employees who engage in specific CWB.

Así, Brasil, México y Argentina, y en menor proporción el resto de los países latinoamericanos, han lanza-1 Si bien el prefijo nano alude a una medida equivalentes a 10 -9 m, la definición de nanotecnología como campo de conocimiento es controversial (Perez et al 2008;Vila Seoane 2011).…”

ResumenEn América Latina, bajo la premisa de una mejor competitividad, han aumentado exponencialmente los recursos dirigidos al desarrollo de las nanotecnologías. En este marco, las discusiones en torno a la aplicación de derechos de propiedad intelectual en nanotecnologías ocupan un lugar central. Al margen de la preocupación expresada tanto en ámbitos públicos como privados, resulta escasa la producción académica referida a dichos derechos en esta área. De ahí que este trabajo se proponga problematizar acerca de la aplicación de los derechos de propiedad intelectual en el desarrollo de nanotecnologías, mediante la selección y revisión crítica de la literatura disponible. Del análisis se desprende la existencia de una controversia en torno a las restricciones que impone la aplicación de patentes al uso de productos de 'primera generación', lo que enfrenta, por un lado, a quienes reclaman derechos a retribución por regalías en I+D y, por otro, a quienes plantean el acceso libre al conocimiento científico-técnico.Descriptores: nanotecnologías; propiedad intelectual; patentes; OMC; políticas científicas. AbstractIn Latin America, under the premise of enhancing economic competitiveness, there has been an exponential increase in investments in the development of nanotechnologies. In this context, the discussion about intellectual property rights with regards to nanotechnology is increasingly central to public debates. However, in comparison with the attention that this issue has attracted in both public and private contexts, there has been little academic analysis published on property rights and nanotechnology. This article problematizes the application of property rights in the development of nanotechnologies through a critical literature review of the existing literature on the topic. From this analysis, the key issue of the restrictions imposed on the application of patents Tomás Javier Carrozza. Estudiante de maestría.
