Existing law authorizes state agencies and departments to, upon request, share records and information related to intellectual property generated by state employees or with state funding with the department. Existing law also imposes certain restrictions on employees and former employees of the department with respect to divulging certain information provided by state agencies and departments regarding intellectual property. Existing law requires the State Department of Public Health to issue research grants for various purposes, including cancer research, vaccines, and spinal cord injuries. This bill would enact, until January 1, 2020, the California Taxpayer Access to Publicly Funded Research Act.
