On-demand webinar – Bioinformatics and Digital Health – Why protecting the IP in your life sciences software is commercially useful and how to go about it

Host and speakers: Caroline Day, Partner and Lauris Kemp, Partner

Maths, including AI, applied to biology is everywhere, from early stage research such as DNA sequencing and mass spectrometry to all stages of drug discovery platforms.

But if you are a company who has innovative bioinformatics software, why should you protect it with a patent? We walk you through the reasons why protecting your maths and computing innovations is just as commercially important as protecting your wet science and explain how to go about obtaining the best protection.

The webinar will also be of interest to in-house counsel and attorneys working in jurisdictions outside of Europe as we will also explain how the EPO examines these types of applications, highlighting the differences between the examination of normal life sciences patent applications and patent applications for maths and AI applied to the life sciences.
