IP Insights: I have an invention! Now what?
|
|
|
|
I have an invention! I want to tell everyone, but now what? When and how do I disclose to Yale OCR, why can’t I tell the world, and when do my collaborators become co-inventors?
During this IP Insights seminar, let's discuss disclosures as a whole, including what constitutes a public disclosure and an invention disclosure. We will also be talking about inventorship and who is (or is not!) an inventor and why. Join Kathryn, Domingos, and Diane to hear more and to ask questions directly.
