Patenting in biotechnology

Patenting in Biotechnology, a laboratory manual is a down-to-earth approach to teaching intellectual property rights in biotechnology. It covers the bare essentials of intellectual property rights that the  biotechnologist needs and nothing more. Focus is on practical skills: how to search for patents and applications, follow application through the patenting system in Europe and the USA; and how to read and analyze patents, which hopefully will lead to writing better patent applications.
