The UC Regents and management including UC president Mark Yudof on their November 15, 2012 meeting at UC Mission Bay in San Francisco plotted on how to have more public private partnerships in research to "benefit" UC and the drug company capitalists. UC Regent Richard Blum who has personally profited from UC investments in his companies and Sherry Lansing who is now the UC Regents Chair pushed using UC public research institutions to push for new drugs that can be patented for profit by private public parternships and said they wanted UC to be more like Stanford. Lansing also profited from UC investments in Qualcom which she has stock in.
