Preface
This book is to investigate governance models that address innovative and ethical academic scientists and knowledge-intensive organizations (KIOs).

This study modifies them to address academic-specific issues at the boundaries of knowledge, autonomy, regulation, and identity. The original interest of this study is a process model of academic scientists to explore an autologous procedure of biologics. The initial focus is on the autologous immune cell injection (the one that Dr. Rosenberg at the National Cancer Institute invented) and stem cell- bone marrow transplant (hospital mode). The scholarly interest is to examine processes that facilitate translating discoveries to a subsequent stage. On the other hand, there emerges another pathway that involves industry organizati
