| Title: | Scientific productivity and patenting at the laboratory level: ananalysis of Brazilian public research laboratories |
| Authors: | Alexandre Aparecido Dias Sérgio Kannebley Júnior |
| Abstract: | In this study, we investigated how different styles of research organisationof laboratories were related to scientific performance and patenting. Froma Brazilian national database that included 1,412 laboratories, we defined atypology withfive categories of laboratories. The categories were definedbased on team composition—represented by the participation ofpermanent researchers, postgraduate students, and technicians—and bythe scope of activities conducted in the laboratories. Adopting theconcept of knowledge production functions, we estimated theproductivity of the different categories of laboratories and the elasticitiesof capital and labour available for scientific production and patenting atthe laboratory level. We found that medium-scale university laboratoriesfocused on teaching and research reported higher scientific productivity,whereas laboratories focused on providing technological services andsmall-scale laboratories, which were less common in universities,filed formore patents. The estimation of knowledge production functionsshowed that scientific production was determined both by capital andby the labour of permanent and non-permanent researchers. Patentingwas mainly determined by the labour factor. We also foundcomplementarity between scientific production and patenting as well asconstant returns to scale for scientific production at the laboratory level. |
