Learning Objectives:
- the key differences between publishing and patenting;
- the advantages and limitations of each approach;
- how to align your choice with career, funding, and commercialisation goals.
This session is designed for academics, inventors, and professionals navigating intellectual property decisions in research and innovation. Don't miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights and make informed choices about protecting and sharing your work.
