More Foreign Companies Now Licensing American Medical Innovations, Including in China, Russia

In 2023, foreign institutions licensing American technology surpassed American ones for the first time, according to data from an NIH website.

MORE FOREIGN LICENSEES LEVERAGE U.S. MEDICAL INVENTIONS THAN DOMESTIC COMPANIES — A FIRST IN 2023 Foreign companies linked to adversarial states are among the hundreds of institutions paying royalties to NIH scientists and institutes, raising questions about foreign influence on government scientists.

– OpenTheBooks.com began to take a closer look at the private royalties paid to NIH and its scientists from companies like pharmaceuticals.

And could any of the payments influence how the government directs its research funds or the public health recommendations it makes?

And by extension, the National Institutes of Health received a nearly unprecedented amount of public scrutiny over the past few years.

Neither of these bills, though, would put guardrails on foreign entities leveraging our medical innovations at the NIH through patent licensing.

Since the Covid pandemic burst into public consciousness in 2020, no face has been more closely associated with the response than Dr. Anthony Fauci.
