Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of PresentationThe accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the information or notes necessary for a complete presentation in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. In the opinion of management, the quarterly financial data includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the quarterly periods presented. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company include the accounts of all of its subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are entities over which the Company has control, where control is defined as the power to govern financial and operating policies. Generally, the Company has a shareholding of more than 50% of the voting rights in its subsidiaries. The effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable is considered when assessing whether control exists. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date control is transferred to the Company, and are de-consolidated from the date control ceases. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company realigned its reporting structure and changed the manner in which performance is assessed. The two operating segments created include the Science Group and the Intellectual Property Group. Certain reclassifications of prior year's data have been made to conform to the current year's presentation of reportable segment information as disclosed in Note 21 - Segment Information and financial statement line items within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
