Patent Resources Group (PRG) will be holding three-day course entitled: "The Bilski Impact: Procuring & Enforcing Software, Business Methods & Bioinformatics Patents" from August 16-18, 2011 in Alexandria, VA and Southfield, MI. The course will address how best to claim, prosecute, and litigate software, business method, and bioinformatics inventions. The course syllabus can be obtained here. Claim styles and limitations designed to meet the somewhat unclear post-Bilski § 101 standards will be discussed. Legal ethics in the context of duty of disclosure under 37 C.F.R. § 1.56 and USPTO conflict of interest issues will also be presented. The registration fee for the course is $2,195. Those interested in registering for the event can do so here.
