IP Center Distinguished Lecture to Consider "Exclusivity and Overlaps in Intellectual Property Regimes"
11/01/2017
Professor Pamela Samuelson will be the guest on November 7 for the Center for Intellectual Property Law and Innovation’s Distinguished Lecture Series. Her topic will be “Exclusivity and Overlaps in Intellectual Property Regimes,” and the event will take place in the Wynne Courtroom at Inlow Hall.
Professor Samuelson is the Richard M. Sherman Distinguished Professor of Law and the Director of the Berkley Center for Law and Technology at the University of California Berkeley School of Law. She said she plans to discuss the lawsuit between Oracle and Google, “in which an appellate court said that some aspects of software can be protected both by copyright and by patent law, although most authorities take the view (including me) that copyright and patent are mutually exclusive.”
The lecture, which is free and open to the public, carries with it 1.0 hour of CLE with a registration. The event begins at 5 p.m., followed immediately by a reception in the Inlow Hall atrium.
