the power to invest in ourselves. UCSF seeks to rewrite the rules on how breakthrough discoveries are developed at our university. Instead of prematurely licensing the rights to our most promising but early findings to the industry, we have created a fund to provide financial support, as well as experienced product development mentoring and expertise to a small number of outstanding projects. By supporting and de-risking our most promising projects through translational development, we expect to capture greater value for UCSF and our inventors with the added benefit of building a sustainable program of funding for future innovations.</p> <p><a href="https://innovation.ucsf.edu/silicon-valley-supports-ucsf%E2%80%99s-innovation">Find out how Silicon Valley philanthropists are supporting the University's science</a>.</p> <p><strong>Podcasts</strong></p> <div class="wysiwyg_twocols layout--50-50"> <div class="wysiwyg_twocols--first bg--transparent"> <p><a href="http://innovation.ucsf.edu/shokat-jura-discuss-invent-fund"><img alt="" height="1250" src="/sites/venture.ucsf.edu/files/wysiwyg/Shokat%20%26%20Jura%20Podcast%20Image%202.jpg" width="1756" /></a></p> </div> <div class="wysiwyg_twocols--second bg--transparent"> <p><a href="http://soundcloud.com/user-176501713/arun-wiita-interview-for-invent-fund?si=d616b3ef892f43ad9e18a7861b3fe7d1&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing"><img alt="" height="1250" src="/sites/venture.ucsf.edu/files/wysiwyg/Arun%20Wiita%20Podcast%20Image%202_0.jpg" width="1756" /></a></p> </div> </div> <p><b>Successful Exits</b></p> <ul> <li style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue Light""><span style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue""><strong>Stephen Nishimura, MD, Jim Marks, MD and Yifan Cheng, PhD</strong>: </span></span></span><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue Light""><span style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue"">Antibody targeting integrin alphavbeta8 to inhibit TGF beta activation, licensed to Corbus. <a href="https://www.corbuspharma.com/press-releases/detail/360/corbus-pharmaceuticals-licenses-two-integrin-targeting-mabs">LINK</a>.</span></span></span></li> <li style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-size:12pt"><span style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue Light""><span style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue""><strong>Natalia Jura, PhD and Kevan Shokat, PhD,</strong> Novel class of HER3 inhibitors, part of the UCSF spin-out company Rezo.
