Abstract

Drug patents are an important aspect of academic and industrial collaboration in drug discovery, including innovation of new drug candidates, the procedure of receiving granted patents of new drugs, and protecting them in the market and courts. The Microperspective considers various modes of collaboration between academics and industry: classic and nonclassic modes of academic patent licensing to the industry, academics used in patent litigations as expert witnesses, assessors, and amicus briefs.
