Klaus Rajewsky Stiftung
Founded to maximize revenues for public research
Prof. Klaus Rajewsky established the Klaus Rajewsky Stiftung to market more than 50 transgenic mice proprietary to him. The Klaus Rajewsky Stiftung is managed by Ascenion, a German IP asset management agency, which is responsible for the administration and commercialisation of the mouse models.
Commercial users can license these animal models through Ascenion. Their license fees go to the Klaus Rajewsky Stiftung, which then makes these tax-free funds available to researchers.
Researchers in universities and public research institutes may use the animal models for non-commercial research without a licence.
