A Lecture and Panel Discussion on the Stanford University v. Roche Molecular Systems Case
A Supreme Court Hearing on the Bayh-Dole Act
University of Rochester Medical Center April 21, 2011
The Center for Emerging and Innovative Sciences at the University of Rochester is pleased to present a lecture and panel discussion on the implications of the Stanford University v. Roche Molecular Systems case. This case, which is now before the U.S. Supreme Court, will attempt to resolve whether an individual inventor may unilaterally terminate a university's right under the Bayh-Dole Act relating to inventions arising from federally funded research. The case has wide ranging implications to universities, individual inventors, and companies licensing or considering licensing technologies from universities and other non-profit organizations.
This event will begin with a talk by William Hulsey, an expert on this case who has lectured on it internationally. The lecture will be followed by a panel session where representatives from the University of Rochester and the Rochester Institute of Technology IP licensing departments will explain the IP policies of their universities. Also on the panel will be a Rochester patent attorney with extensive industrial experience as an in-house council. The audience will be able to learn the steps they should take to avoid uncertainty in IP ownership when universities and university faculty engage with corporations in research and development.
Who should attend:
University Faculty and Research Scientists University IP Licensing and Technology Management Professionals Corporate IP Licensing and Technology Transfer Professionals Intellectual Property Attorneys Licensing Executives Government Funding and Technology Transfer Officials
When: Thursday, April 21st from 8:00 – 11:00
Location: Class of ’62 Auditorium University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry 601 Elmwood Ave Rochester, NY 14642 (Map)
