Title: Basics of Intellectual Property and a Patent Case Study
Abstract. The lecture introduces various forms of Intellectual Property Rights such as patents, utility models, designs, trade marks, copyright, trade secrets & know-how, with particular emphasis on patents as a tool of particular relevance to scientists and engineers. A contentious (ongoing or adjudicated) patent case - if possible relating to the technical area of Materials Science and/or Nanotechnologies - developed before a patent office or a court of justice, will then be studied.
