Summary:
This book is the first to provide a comprehensive global examination of the patentability of 'in vitro' diagnostic tests. The editor, a patent attorney, globally known for her work with the pharmaceutical industry, has assembled a compendium of international expertise that will prove indispensable to patent practitioners (prosecution as well as litigation), corporate research teams, pharmaceutical and other companies and academics throughout the world. This book will be a single resource and reference guide for practitioners to understand the requirements for patenting 'in vitro' diagnostics in each of the nine jurisdictions.
