Abstract: The transformation of medical research achievements is a crucial step in advancing medical technologies and improving people’s health. In recent years, China has vigorously implemented the strategy of innovation-driven development, promoted the transformation and application of research achievements, and fostered a favorable ecosystem for their transformation. However, medical schools encounter numerous challenges in transforming research achievements: the misalignment between the outputs of research achievements and market demands; the imperfect coordinative mechanisms among participating entities; the weak service capabilities of common technology platforms; the shortages of technology transfer personnel; and the rigidity of evaluation and assessment systems. To address these challenges, here several recommendations are proposed, including establishing a new multi-party transformation system; improving patent quality and refining evaluation systems; adjusting assessment mechanisms; strengthening the construction of common platforms; establishing and improving institutional frameworks for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements; and enhancing the development of professional talents. 

Key words: scientific and technological achievements, transformation of scientific and technological achievements, medical schools, participating subjects, efficiency of research achievement transformation, countermeasures
