Innovation, Diffusion, and Trade

Eaton, Jonathan - 2006

We explore the determinants of research specialization across countries and its consequences for relative wages. Using a dynamic Ricardian model we examine the effects of faster international technology diffusion and lower trade barriers on the incentive to innovate. In the absence of any...

Global Knowledge and Trade Flows : Theory and Measurement

Lind, Nelson; Ramondo, Natalia - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2022

We study the global innovation and diffusion of ideas by introducing trade into the model in Eaton and Kortum (1999 … intensity of innovation within countries over time and diffusion rates across countries. We find significant specialization … across the globe: some countries have high innovation rates, while other countries rely on diffusion. Although innovation is …

Return on Returns : Building Scientific Capacity in AIDS Endemic Countries

Fry, Caroline; Ganguli, Ina - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2023

We estimate spillovers from public funding for health research in the context of the NIH's Fogarty International Center's AIDS International Training and Research Program, which aims to strengthen scientific capacity in AIDS endemic countries by providing African researchers with training...

Measuring the Commercial Potential of Science

Masclans, Roger; Hasan, Sharique; Cohen, Wesley M. - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2024

This paper uses a large language model to develop an ex-ante measure of the commercial potential of scientific findings. In addition to validating the measure against the typical holdout sample, we validate it externally against 1.) the progression of scientific findings through a major...

The Diffusion of Scientific Knowledge Across Time and Space : Evidence from Professional Transitions for the Superstars of Medicine

Azoulay, Pierre - 2011

Are scientific knowledge flows embodied in individuals, or "in the air"? To answer this question, we measure the effect of labor mobility in a sample of 9,483 elite academic life scientists on the citation trajectories associated with individual articles (resp. patents) published (resp. granted)...

International R&D Spillovers and Institutions

Coe, David T. - 2008

The empirical analysis in "International R&D Spillovers" (Coe and Helpman, 1995) is first revisited by applying modern panel cointegration estimation techniques to an expanded data set that we have constructed for the purpose of this study. The new estimates confirm the key results reported in...

University Patenting : Estimating the Diminishing Breadth of Knowledge Diffusion and Consumption

Rosell, Carlos - 2006

The rate of university patenting increased dramatically during the 1980s. To what extent did the knowledge flow patterns associated with public sector inventions change as university administrators and faculty seemingly became more commercially oriented? Using a Herfindahl-type measure of patent...

International R&D Spillovers

Coe, David T. - 1993

Investment in research and development (R&D) affects a country's total factor productivity. Recently new theories of economic growth have emphasized this link and have also identified a number of channels through which a country's R&D affects total factor productivity of its trade partners....

Cassatts in the Attic

Koffi, Marlène; Marx, Matt - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2023

We analyze more than 70 million scientific articles to characterize the gender dynamics of commercializing science. The double-digit gender gap we report is explained neither by the quality of the science nor its ex-ante commercial potential, and is widest among papers with female last authors...
