What support does Harvard University provide?
Harvard provides HSCI with substantial infrastructure support, which allows the Institute to direct its funding to research, education programs, and operations. HSCI is responsible for funding our own scientific investments and operations. The University provides substantial support through its Office of Technology Development, which handles patents, licensing and industry collaborations; the Office for Sponsored Programs, which supports external grants to HSCI; the Harvard Communications Office, for publications and public relations; as well as other groups.
