Over the last decades, life sciences have become a productive source of technological innovation, leading to commercial products and new markets. Along with this ongoing development, issues in intellectual property are becoming more and more important for researchers in science research

To provide specific tools and knowledge for young industrial scientists, we organize a course dedicated to patents and their implementation in life sciences industry. At the end of this two-day workshop, you will master advanced knowledge in intellectual property.

Importantly, you will have the opportunity to participate in workshops where you can gain hands on experiences in the topics described.
