This webinar series is intended to provide PhD researchers and early-career researchers with an introduction to Intellectual Property (IP) and the machinery of patent applications. Professor Doug MacFarlane presents this topic from the perspective of a practicing researcher who has many years of experience recognizing new inventions and turning them into valuable patents. Part 1 of the webinar provides an introduction to Intellectual Property, what it is and what forms it takes; discussion about what makes a discovery 'inventive'; and details of the steps you need to take to protect your invention.
