Our Mission
Our goal is to support CDC’s mission by facilitating the development and transition of CDC innovations into products that benefit the health of Americans and people around the world.
About Us
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Technology Transfer Office (TTO) partners with industry, academia, and other government agencies to transfer CDC’s research portfolio into products and services to improve public health. The TTO provides a complete array of services to support technology transfer activities: negotiating collaborative agreements with outside parties to ensure compliance with Federal statutes and regulations, reviewing employee invention reports, marketing technologies, and making recommendations to the National Institute of Health Office of Technology Transfer concerning the filing of domestic and foreign patent applications. The CDC TTO staff works closely with NIH and outside parties to facilitate commercialization efforts to benefit public health.
CDC’s technologies include diagnostics tools, therapeutics, research tools, vaccines and occupational health and safety products. Inventions and technologies developed by CDC scientists and engineers have been licensed to commercial partners in many parts of the world. The CDC TTO is committed to providing access to newer, more effective public health products and services.
