[labnetwork] how-to retain knowledge

[Matthieu Nannini, Dr.]

Dear lab network members,

i'm the manager of the McGill Microfab in Montréal QC and I have a few questions to al of you:

I've been asking myself this question for a long time and wondering how do others do.
- how do you retain knowledge from fab members ? process, know-how etc, so members don't have to reinvent the wheel every time.
- where do you draw the line between a researcher doing research and a researcher doing r&d for his/her newly spun off company using students
- how do you deal with patented processes owned by PIs ?

Thanks a lot

Matthieu
