SUMMARY:Promoting Inventor Equity in Patenting
DESCRIPTION:Join us for another installment of the OHSU Innovates Speaker Series\, where we will delve into promoting equity and inclusivity in patent inventorship. \nAs of 2019\, women and people of color make up a very small percentage of inventors on patents issued in the US\, at approximately 12% and 1.7% respectively. These disparities in patent inventorship surpass even those in scientific authorship and bring with them significant economic implications. \nIntellectual property lawyer Stephen Sullivan\, J.D.\, of Schwabe will lead the discussion\, joined by OHSU members Ruchi Thanawala\, M.D.\, M.S.\, and Carmem Pfeifer\, D.D.S.\, Ph.D.\, to discuss the barriers to inclusive inventorship and strategies to foster more equity in patenting. \nRegister HERE
