Biomedical companies will likely ask you what steps have you taken to verify your effectiveness claim (independent testing, etc.). Also,have you done DCF analysis of the intellectual property?

Given that you have, the easiest way to achieve your objective is to see if the TTO at your university is willing to be an intermediary.

Hello Tyler Ekern,

I recommend using USPTO's Patent Assignment Search portal.

Find the best relevant patents to your invention or just use the ones cited by the examiner during the examination and see who has licensed these patents. These could be your potential licensees, additionally, the patent applicants of these patents could be interested in your patent.

Thank you both! That makes sense, pranita.

A useful background book for this question, if you can get hold of it, is "Once upon a time: the patent:" by Pascal Attali ISBN 9798831971774
