Presentation Description
This panel will provide an overview and introduction to the Intellectual Property track at the BIO 2017 International Convention. This session will bring together the perspectives of industry, administrative agencies, the judiciary, and academia to lay out the current state of the U.S. patent system, and its likely trajectory for the coming year insofar as it is relevant to biotechnology. The impact of recent decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court, of new policy initiatives in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, as well as revised trade and intellectual property policies in the new U.S. administration will be discussed.
