Matthieu, |
I can share my experience of getting process recipes documented |
from students who use our laboratory for their research work (Centre of |
excellence in Nanoelectronics, IISc, Bangalore) in following manner-- |
1. A brief format of the reports that each researchers needs to submit |
after completion of research work (or part of it) is given to them at |
the time of their initiating the work. |
2. Report is colleted from them after research is completed and their |
next usage of lab may not be approved if they have not submitted the |
report in appropriate format. |
3. New processes or recipes shared by the user student is documented as |
an internal report authored by the researcher and co-authored by the lab |
staff if essential role played by them. This gives the researchers sense |
of ownership of the work and also co-author gets his due credit. This |
document is not shared publicly until the researcher so desires. |
However, it is available for sharing amongst the Lab members on request |
basis. |
(This process is followed with researchers approaching our lab under |
Indian Nanoelectronics Users Program--INUP) |
Regards, |
VIjay |

Matthieu, |
I don't have the answer, but I can briefly comment on the first question |
(i.e. retaining knowledge from fab members). |
We have discussed this issue at Purdue's Birck Nanotechnology Center and |
we thought about developing an online knowledge database. However, the |
key is getting members to actually write down their know-how since |
people are often not interested in doing additional work that does not |
clearly benefit them. Not only that, even if members write down their |
information, it has to be written in a clearly understood format and |
someone else should check the information to ensure that it is accurate. |
In order to get this to work, I think you need a staff member partly |
devoted to the project. The staff member can ask students for specific |
information and then create standard-format documents from this |
information. |

Dear lab network members, |
i'm the manager of the McGill Microfab in Montr?al QC and I have a few |
questions to al of you: |
I've been asking myself this question for a long time and wondering how |
do others do. |
- how do you retain knowledge from fab members ? process, know-how etc, |
so members don't have to reinvent the wheel every time. |
- where do you draw the line between a researcher doing research and a |
researcher doing r&d for his/her newly spun off company using students |
- how do you deal with patented processes owned by PIs ? |
Thanks a lot |
Matthieu |
