Technological trampolines for new venture creation in Catalonia: the case of the University of Girona

Recent trends in technology transfer show an intensification of spin-off creation as a modality of university research commercialisation, complementary to the conventional ones, contract research and licensing. In this paper we analyse the evolution, objectives, resources and activities of a specialised unit –Technological Trampoline (TT) - in charge of new venture creation at the University of Girona (Catalonia-Spain). Based on two theoretical frameworks, Resource-based-view and Institutional Theory, we adopt a multi-dimensional approach to study the strategy of spinning-off new ventures at the University of Girona in terms of resources and activities, how this process is organised and if the outputs fit with this UdG’s objectives and the local environment. Our main contribution is an in-depth analysis of the spin-off creation unit with special emphasis on its variety of resources and activities. The results have a series of implications and recommendations at both university and TT level.

Catalytic tuning of phosphinoethane ligand. An improved catalyst for hydrocarbon

Report for the scientific sojourn carried out at the Department of Chemistry University of North Texas (USA) from September until November 2006. It includes the performance of two computational chemistry studies: an experimental and computational study toward the intra- and intermolecular hydroarylation of isonitriles and the development of an improved catalyst for hydrocarbon functionalization.

Taxonomic review of Lutzomyia walkeri (Newstead, 1914) [= Lutzomyia marajoensis (Damasceno & Causey, 1944)] and the resurrection of Lutzomyia dubitans (Sherlock, 1962) (Diptera: Psychodidae)

Examination of the holotype of Lutzomyia marajoensis (Damasceno & Causey, 1944) shows this species to be identical to Lutzomyia walkeri (Newstead, 1914). The name Lutxomyia dubitans (Sherlock, 1962) is resurrected for another sand fly which has been incorrectly named L. marajoensis since 1961. Newly discovered structural differences between males and females of L walkeri from L. dubitans are presented.

Tot repensant els serveis bibliogràfics a la University of California

Informe d'un Grup de Treball sobre Serveis Bibliogràfics de la University of California que presenta un seguit de recomanacions sobre els canvis que aquests serveis haurien d'implementar per millorar les seves prestacions. Els autors posen de manifest el desfasament que pateixen bona part dels serveis bibliotecaris actuals davant les prestacions que ofereixen portals com Amazon o Google. Les recomanacions s'estructuren en quatre apartats: millorar la cerca i la recuperació, redissenyar l'OPAC, adoptar noves pràctiques catalogràfiques i donar suport a la millora continua. L'informe finalitza amb l'enumeració d'una seixantena de possibles actuacions addicionals que també es van considerar i les raons per les quals finalment es van descartar.
