  4. Owner’s Manual

  5. Owner’s Manual “The power of instruction is seldom of much efficacy except in those happy dispositions where it is almost superfluous." - Edward Gibbon

  6. Goals This is nominally … A Course About a Specific Innovation Problem (Mostly Economics) But you should think of it as … A Course About R&D Incentives Ongoing Research A Course About Giving Practical Advice (A Potential Initiative) The Hard (Also Rewarding, Interesting) Part…

  7. Interdisciplinary Problems

  8. Three views - Cartoon intuition - “How to do public policy” - A worked example.

  9. Interdisciplinary Problems Drugs for U.S. The Problem Drugs for Developing World

  10. Interdisciplinary Problems Drugs for U.S. Political Science – Redistribution Drugs for Developing World

  11. Interdisciplinary Problems Drugs for U.S. Biology & Engineering Drugs for Developing World

  12. Interdisciplinary Problems Drugs for U.S. This Course (Primarily) Drugs for Developing World

  13. Interdisciplinary Problems Drugs for U.S. Incentives Design Drugs for Developing World

  14. Interdisciplinary Problems 2 Doing Public Policy - Define Goals  Understand  Identify Bottlenecks Design a (Hopefully) Elegant Response.

  15. Interdisciplinary Problems 2 • Doing Public Policy • - Define Goals Understand  • Identify Bottlenecks Design a • (Hopefully) Elegant Response. • Define Goals • Choose an Objective Function!

  16. Interdisciplinary Problems 2 Doing Public Policy - Define Goals Understand Identify Bottlenecks Design a (Hopefully) Elegant Response. 2. Understand Take Theory Seriously - “Pharma doesn’t want to prevent diseases, selling drugs is more lucrative.” - “Prizes are only paid if you get a drug.” *Making Contact Between Theory and Evidence

  17. Interdisciplinary Problems 2 Doing Public Policy - Define Goals  Understand  Identify Bottlenecks  Design a (Hopefully) Elegant Response. 3. Identify Bottlenecks - What are the Main Innovation Challenges? - The Innovation Toolbox

  18. Interdisciplinary Problems 2 Doing Public Policy - Define Goals Understand Identify Bottlenecks Design a (Hopefully) Elegant Response. 4. Design a Response - “No dominant incentive mechanism” - What are the Main Innovation Challenges? - The Innovation Toolbox

  19. A Concrete Example: Prizes vs. PPPs Prizes How Big Should the Prize Be? $800m ± $115m PPPs Picking Winners Managing Outsourced R&D Getting the Best Ideas … And Also Patents? Access Pricing

  20. Recurring Themes Innovation Economics Efficient Procurement (Getting a Good Price) Usually: Efficiency: How intense do we want R&D effort to be? Here: Limited Budget: How much will it cost? Information Asymmetry/Agency Problems (Managing Outsourced R&D) Managers Don’t Know Everything Researchers May Have Diverging Goals

  21. Recurring Themes Innovation Economics, ctd… Eliciting Information (Getting Good Ideas) Good Ideas are (Often) Widely Distributed Counterexamples A prizes for reduced DALYs? A prize for optimized drug compounds? Efficient Access Patents Prices matter!

  22. Comment “It’s a Great Idea, But Government Will Never Listen” A Lawyer’s Faith
