Stronger Life Science Patents

MichBio Life Sciences Showcase

Thanks for attending!


Thanks for attending the MichBio Life Sciences Showcase. I hope you enjoyed our talk on Stronger Life Science Patents. Below you'll find links to all of the resources I mentioned. 

​- Ashley

About this event.


Life science patents have grown increasingly vulnerable to rejection and invalidation due to subject matter eligibility and enablement interpretations. The implications are staggering with over 80% of abandoned life science applications having a final rejection stating that the innovation did not include patentable subject matter. In this talk, we’ll explore how to avoid these rejections, understand the implications for new drugs, and provide practical tips for creating robust life science patents.

Recommended Listening.


In our monthly Patently Strategic Podcast, we go into much greater depth on all of the topics discussed in today's talk.
