The Lilly Research Award Program (LRAP) provides academic researchers worldwide with a gate to partner with Lilly internal scientists who are working on basic and applied research to collaboratively advance novel impactful projects. The pre-competitive nature of these projects is the most relevant feature as it permits the shared publication of the research outcomes immediately. In this article, this highly successful initiative is reviewed in the context of general academia-industry collaborations and the lessons learned from different shared projects, in the area of innovative continuous flow chemistry, will be discussed.
