Even though expertise is embodied in human in addition to actual capital and that interactions between technically educated everyone is severe to innovation and expertise diffusion, facts on scientists, engineers and different pros haven't been effectively exploited to light up the productiveness of and altering styles in innovation. STEP convened a workshop to envision how information on skills and occupation paths, mobility, move area relationships, and the constitution of labor in agencies may make clear problems with study productiveness, interactions between deepest and public quarter associations, and different points of innovation.

3 APPENDIX C 47 widespread (Mowery, 1999, p. 44). While domestic consortia of firms focus their efforts most consistently on research, many of the international alliances focus on joint development, manufacture, or marketing of products. Firms also outsource to universities. In recent years the proportion of university research that is funded directly by industry has grown from approximately 2 percent in 1960 to over 7 percent by 1997 (Mowery, 1999, p. 4 Trends in outsourcing to universities are clouded, however, by the fact that although industry funds an increasing share of university research, contributions to universities are not a significantly growing share of industry-funded R&D (Merrill and Cooper, 1999).

CES is also exploring with the American Medical Association (AMA) the possibility of linking AMA data on education and specialization of physicians with economic census information to study doctors’ offices. Jensen discussed one limitation on the Census economic data. Census does not survey very small establishments with less than 20 employees; it relies on administrative data from the Internal Revenue Service to capture some employment and payroll information on them. This reflects the primary focus of the Census Bureau on developing an accurate picture of aggregate economic activity as an input to the national product accounts of the Bureau of Economic Analysis.
