Dr Sam Moxon - How ‘Publish or Perish’ Harms Research Commercialisation

Dr Sam Moxon - How ‘Publish or Perish’ Harms Research Commercialisation

Dr Sam Moxon, narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher.

Sam discusses the dilemma faced by academics between publishing research quickly and protecting their work through patents. He suggests that the "publish or perish" mentality can discourage the commercialisation of research, as it pressures researchers to publish instead of securing patents that are attractive to investors. This rush to publish can undermine the development of practical applications and commercial potential of research, potentially hindering the translation of academic work into societal and economic benefits. He advocates for a balanced approach, allowing for both academic contributions and the protection of ideas, to ensure research can truly benefit those in need.
