[Canceled] Patent Policy and Innovation

Friday, February 12, 12:00 pm
Pound Hall, Room 213, Harvard Law School
Hosted by The Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics

This panel will focus on how patent law affects various industries differently.  The pharmaceutical and high-tech industries offer perhaps the most vivid examples of this divergence.  The panel will also discuss whether patent law currently is or should be technology specific.  Finally, the panel will also explore which institutional actor is in the best position to craft substantive patent law to promote innovation policy.  Judge Sharon Prost of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, Dan Burk, and Clarisa Long are among the panelist who will offer their observations on these challenging issues.
