FUNDING: ADJUST TO DEVELOPMENTAL/REGULATORY TIMELINES
It’s smart to capitalize on the
resources and connections of the
university so that you do not have to
rent lab space yourself.
Incorporate & raise money as
soon as possible
Stay in the university as long as
possible
Seek academic grants while still in
the university.
