More concern over synthetic biology patents
,----[ Quote ]

| the Financial Times, follows earlier
| criticism from Nobel laureate John Sulston,
| PhD, that such patents could be "extremely

IPO Releases List of Top 300 Patent Holders for 2009
,----[ Quote ]
| The Intellectual Property Owners Association
| (IPO) released its 27th annual list of the
| top 300 organizations receiving U.S. patents.
| Patent Docs Readers may recall that the U.S.
| Patent & Trademark Office stopped releasing
| its annual list of top patent recipients in
| 2006 in order to "discourag[e] any perception
| that we believe more is better."

European patents and patent applications - statistics 2009
,----[ Quote ]
| The EPO last week published its statistics on
| patents applied for and granted in 2009.
|
| [...]
|
| The chart shows a clear decline in granted
| patents from all major applicant countries,
| namely Germany, Japan and the US (the chart
| colours of Germany and the UK are almost
| undistinguishable, but a look in the
| corresponding table shows that Germany is the
| top line. Sorry, UK readers). All together,
| applicants from Germany, the U.S. and Japan
| received 61% of the patents granted in 2009.
| South Korea is the only one of the major
| filing nations that seems to (almost) hold
| its number of applications.

No Bilski Blockbuster from Supreme Court Today
,----[ Quote ]
| The Supreme Court handed down two
| relatively low-profile decisions this
| morning, leaving to another day some of the
| most-awaited cases of the term like Bilski
| v. Kappos, the business-methods patent-
| eligibility case that was argued last Nov.
| 9. The Court won't be in session again
| until May 17.
