Patent Law And Access To Biotechnology, Enoch Otim

Technology and Economics Law Journal

The research analyzes the use of patents in a field other than industry and how they have a wider impact than the monetary gain of the patent holder. In recent years, patents have been taken out on organisms and gene sequences, which has a flow-on effect of jeopardizing any further research in that area and possible future developments. This is a serious issue in the fast-moving field of medical biotechnology. For example, researchers patented and developed a test that utilized and identified a gene sequence that was later patented by another party. The researchers may have to discontinue the test …

The Sufficiency Of Disclosure Of Ai Inventions, Mateo Aboy, Aparajita Lath, Timo Minssen, Kathleen Liddell

Articles

• The complex and data-driven nature of artificial intelligence (AI) raises questions for the sufficient disclosure of patent applications in this field. What are the European patent disclosure requirements for AI inventions?

• One challenge is that, prior to training, AI systems can be considered generic models. But after training, they transform into specialized AI systems to solve a particular problem. This transformation requires training data, making it an integral part of the AI system’s definition. But to what extent is the disclosure of the training data or training process necessary for patent disclosure?

Patent Law’S Role In Protecting Public Health, Sean B. Seymore

Notre Dame Law Review

Innumerable inventions implicate public health—including drugs, vaccines, dietary supplements, and sewage treatment plants. Over the past century, the Patent Office and the courts have modulated the ability to obtain or enforce patents for these inventions—whether in response to a public health crisis or to protect the credulous public from unscrupulous inventors. While normative and policy-based arguments can justify these interventions, they’ve disrupted the delicate balance of two competing policy objectives in patent law—enhancing public welfare and promoting innovation. This Article offers a new approach for courts to protect public health in patent cases—by making public health an affirmative defense to …

The Curious Case Of The James Brown Estate, Lee-Ford Tritt

UF Law Faculty Publications

Great musicians are larger than life, and the most iconic of them become members of an elite musical monarchy: Michael Jackson was the King of Pop, Aretha Franklin was the Queen of Soul, and Prince Rogers Nelson was Prince. Similarly, James Brown, the inventor of funk music, landed a seat at this table of legendary musicians. Although lacking a royal honorific, James Brown was "the Godfather of Soul."

Theoretical Justifications For Trade Secrets Protection Of Routine Business Information, Timothy Murphy

Buffalo Law Review

For over a century trade secret law has protected internal business information from misappropriation by departing employees. Over this time, courts developed various limiting doctrines to minimize the impact of this broad protection on employee mobility in particular cases. However, the workplace has changed significantly over this time and these changes raise substantial questions as to whether there is any valid theoretical justification for continuing to protect routine business information under trade secret law. In an environment where the vast majority of trade secrets claims are against former employees, the lack of sound justification for protecting routine business information, the …

Hard Truths About Soft Ip, Amanda Levendowski

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

People routinely refer to copyright and trademark as “soft IP” to distinguish these practices from another area of intellectual property: patent. But the term reflects implicit biases against copyright and trademark doctrine and practioners. “Soft IP” implies that patent law alone is hard, even though patents are no more physically, metaphorically or intellectually hard than copyrights and trademarks. Despite stereotypes to the contrary, patents are not necessarily more practically hard: while the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office requires technical training for patent prosecutors, which excludes many women and people of color, no such experience is necessary for most patent litigators …
