About T&I

Formerly the journal Technology, Technology and Innovation (T&I) was published by Cognizant Communication Corporation from 2010-2015, with the National Academy of Inventors® (NAI) serving as the editors of the journal. On January 1, 2016, the NAI took over as the owner and publisher of the journal. The journal serves a key role in meeting the NAI’s mission to recognize academic invention and inventors and enhance the visibility of non-profit and university technology and innovation.

Technology & Innovation, edited and published by the National Academy of Inventors®, is a multidisciplinary journal dedicated to providing a forum for innovative discourse. As a part of our mission to honor academic invention, we are pleased to feature an article from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), a profile of a Fellow of the National Academy of Inventors®, and a spotlight of a Member Institution’s Chapter of the National Academy of Inventors® in every issue.

Authors should be guided by the interest of the readers who are likely to be knowledgeable non-specialist scholars. Articles deal with a wide range of topics including:

• Presenting information encompassing the entire field of applied sciences
• Fostering the inventive spirit through education and mentorship
• Creating an inclusive innovative culture
• The process of innovation and invention
• Technology transfer in an academic setting
• Environmental (including human health) impact of various technologies
• Advances in transformative technology and translational science
• Critical assessments of specific segments of science, engineering, medicine, or other technologies
• Economics of technology, governmental and policy action, and innovation as related to intellectual property
• Historical, societal, ethical, and related aspects of science, engineering, medicine, or technology
