Summary

Dealing with intellectual property in the life sciences sector is fraught with contention. There are many challenges associated with harnessing the power of natural phenomena and transforming it  into something that is patent eligible. 

In this webinar, Dr Lisa Haile explores issues and strategies for diagnostic and therapeutic patents and licenses, and will address some key questions. 

  • What strategies can be used to avoid the pitfalls associated with patenting around "laws of nature"?
  • What are the effects of the Alice ruling and the Myriad Genetics case on patents?
