The right to be granted a patent for a given invention lies with the first person to file a fully-supported patent application. However, rushing to the patent office does not necessarily lead to the best outcomes in patenting. Finding the perfect time to file a patent is a collaborative process between the inventor and CTL, discovering a time that is not too early or too late. In this third session of the IP Series, we will discuss real-life examples of practical considerations in invention disclosure timing, including enablement, written description, and prior art hazards in publishing scientific findings before patenting. Join us to consider the status of your research and successful timing.
