Abstract:
The technology transfer is a vital task for the development of China's scientific and technological innovation system. As a discipline that integrates technological and legal characteristics, forensic medicine has distinct particularities in terms of attribute orientation, achievement forms and application scenarios, making it infeasible to directly adopt the market-oriented transformation models applied in general industrial fields. Based on the disciplinary characteristics, this paper systematically analyzes the characteristics, major problems and structural causes affecting the transfer of scientific and technological achievements in this field. The research reveals that the transfer and application of forensic medicine achievements mainly serve forensic science practice, presenting an overall pattern dominated by public welfare and technology output. Current transfer practices are plagued by insufficient supply of high-value achievements, poor connection between laboratories and the market, and broken industrial chains. The underlying causes lie in the structural mismatch between the forensic public welfare orientation and market operation logic, the inadequate transfer capacity of public institutions, private sectors and corporate groups to meet the requirements for transfer, and the talent training system remains insufficient to cultivate interdisciplinary professionals for integrated achievement transfer. To address the above challenges, this paper proposes adhering to demand-oriented principles. Strengthening the dominant role of enterprises in innovation, promoting collaboration among public institutions, private sectors and corporate groups to jointly build proof of concept centers and pilot plant platforms, establish a full-chain transfer system, and explore collaborative and integrated transfer pathways, so as to better serve the needs of forensic science practice.
