Patents are designed to protect and encourage creativity and innovation.
Patenting a biomedical discovery can be a requirement before a pharmaceutical
company or biotech entity will invest in the lengthy and costly clinical testing
necessary to achieve patient benefit. Although scientists and clinicians are well
versed in research publication requirements, patent descriptions and claims are
formatted in a manner quite different from a research paper. Patents require (a)
a series of logical statements clearly delineating the boundaries of the novel
aspects of the invention and (b) sufficient disclosure of the invention so that
it can be reproduced by others. Patents are granted only for inventions that meet
three conditions: novelty, nonobviousness, and usefulness. This chapter provides
basic guidelines and definitions of technology transfer: inventions,
inventorship, and patent filing, which are summarized using a question and answer
format.
