Abstract
Relationships between academia and industry are increasingly intimate and commercial. While opportunities are created for each partner, there are also important conflict of interest issues. Particularly challenging is ensuring that universities maintain their traditional role in public science while partnering with a commercial entity with a tradition of proprietary science. We describe a collaboration where the interests and values of each partner were articulated in advance and conflict of interest issues were resolved before legal and business arrangements were established in a contract. We discuss the principles involved and the resolutions achieved in the hope that it may provide a useful model for addressing academic/industry scientific collaborations.
