The University of Minnesota has joined with three other research institutions to work on animal genetics research. One of the university's partners will be the Roslin Institute in Scotland, which is known for producing Dolly, the lamb cloned from the tissue of an adult sheep. The group has agreed to transfer the commercial rights of their discoveries to a private company called AniGenics, Inc. AniGenics will pay licensing fees to the institutions, and researchers will still be able to use their work for further studies. Sue Petto is a senior licensing associate with Patents and Technology Marketing at the University of Minnesota.
