Thomas Edison, although best known for inventing the light bulb, did not work alone—his greatest invention may have been the research and development laboratory.2 At his Menlo Park and West Orange laboratories, he hired “muckers” to help perfect his ideas and develop new inventions.3 The collaboration with others worked well; Edison was a named inventor on 1093 U.S. patents, as well as 500-600 unsuccessful patent applications.4 This system of invention is the same model used in the laboratories of research universities, colleges, and non-profit research institutions across the country.5 A faculty member, called a principal investigator, leads a research team composed of a mix of research scientists, post-doctoral fellows, graduate students, and technicians.6 These research teams are responsible for thousands of new inventions across the country each year.7	cache/inlawrev-18363.pdf	txt/inlawrev-18363.txt
