Pasteur's Quadrant is a concept in the field of research and innovation that categorizes different types of scientific inquiry based on their motivations and goals. The concept was popularized by Donald Stokes in his 1997 book "Pasteur's Quadrant: Basic Science and Technological Innovation." Stokes divides research into four quadrants based on two axes: 1. **The quest for fundamental understanding** (basic research) versus **the quest for use** (applied research).
