  • Request for Comments on Proposed Amendments to Patent
    INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY - ISRAEL AUTHOR Request for comments on proposed David Gilat amendments to Patent Law 26 April 2021 | Contributed by Reinhold Cohn Group Easing of regulatory burden Examination of biological molecules Patentable subject matter Biological material samples Destruction of infringing products Reliance on foreign patent office decisions Other issues Outstanding issues The Ministry of Justice and the Patent Office recently published a request for comments on purported expansive amendments to the Patent Law. Some of the proposed amendments are minor, while others represent radical changes to the existing legislation. Many of the proposed amendments, if carried through, may benefit foreign applicants, which are the source of most patent applications in Israel. The deadline for filing comments was 7 April 2021. It remains to be seen how the process will develop. This article discusses the proposed amendments and the effect that they may have on the Israeli patent system. Easing of regulatory burden The proposed amendments follow a 2014 government resolution which provides that all government offices should reduce their regulatory burden. Accordingly, many of the proposed amendments clearly relate to reducing the regulatory burden which results from filing patent applications. For example, the request for comments asked applicants about the removal of the Patent Office requirement that parties must disclose any publications cited by any patent offices in other countries. The request for comments also asked applicants about the introduction of a grace period, which would give parties one year following the first publication of their invention to file a patent application. Without a grace period, an inventor's patent rights can be undermined where, for example, they discuss their new research at a conference.

  • Understanding Research Metrics INTRODUCTION Discover How to Monitor Your Journal’S Performance Through a Range of Research Metrics
    Understanding research metrics INTRODUCTION Discover how to monitor your journal’s performance through a range of research metrics. This page will take you through the “basket of metrics”, from Impact Factor to usage, and help you identify the right research metrics for your journal. Contents UNDERSTANDING RESEACH METRICS 2 What are research metrics? What are research metrics? Research metrics are the fundamental tools used across the publishing industry to measure performance, both at journal- and author-level. For a long time, the only tool for assessing journal performance was the Impact Factor – more on that in a moment. Now there are a range of different research metrics available. This “basket of metrics” is growing every day, from the traditional Impact Factor to Altmetrics, h-index, and beyond. But what do they all mean? How is each metric calculated? Which research metrics are the most relevant to your journal? And how can you use these tools to monitor your journal’s performance? For a quick overview, download our simple guide to research metrics. Or keep reading for a more in-depth look at what’s in the “basket of metrics” and how to interpret it. UNDERSTANDING RESEACH METRICS 3 Citation-based metrics Citation-based metrics IMPACT FACTOR What is the Impact Factor? The Impact Factor is probably the most well-known metric for assessing journal performance. Designed to help librarians with collection management in the 1960s, it has since become a common proxy for journal quality. The Impact Factor is a simple research metric: it’s the average number of citations received by articles in a journal within a two-year window.

It is suggested that From~n'smajor contribution is not accessible to social scientists in its directly apparent form. As a serious contri- bution to social science the immediately apparent meanings, of Fromm's ideas which are rendered at first reading of his writings, are quite 'deceptive. ' This deceptive quality in Fromm's opus has tended to re- sult in a number of critical articles and books on Fromm which stress his contributions as being that of an ethical philosopher rather than as a social scientist. This type of judgement has serious implications for the present situation whereby Fronun's work is generally regarded to be on the periphery of "institutional ized social science" conceptual- izations and consequently for advancement of the more recent development toward theoretical integration of the various disciplines which come under the rubric of the social sciences (i.e., sociology, social psy- chology, pol itical science and anthropology) .

  • Thomas Fritz Action Proposal ICORE 2008 1 of 24 Through the Looking
    Thomas Fritz Action Proposal ICORE 2008 Through the looking glass, what scientists can see when they use the right tools. “What we observe is not nature itself but nature exposed to our method of questioning.” Werner Heisenberg Contact Information: Thomas Fritz West Shore Jr. / Sr. High School Mission Statement: What we know about living things is made possible by the devices that we have made to discern life processes. Students will understand that our ability to understand is limited by our ability to detect and measure. Abstract: 150 Words or Less My students will solve plant pathogen problems using an evolving set of information and tools. First observations will be unaided externally observable characteristics simulating pre-scientific conditions. To jump to the point in history where the disease state was understood post microscope, I will then introduce basic microbiological methods utilizing selective media to determine a broad class of pathogen. Following this we will jump to the time in history that DNA was understood and utilize an ICORE kit to perform PCR testing. The last “tool” to be introduced will be DNA microarrays. In this case a simulation will be performed that will suggest to the students were we might be able to take the understanding of specific genetic markers that they learned about during the PCR testing. Description of Teaching unit & Expected outcomes. “What we observe is not nature itself but nature exposed to our method of questioning.” Werner Heisenberg The above quote served as the inspiration for this collection of student activities. This unit is designed to have students make scientific observations for the purpose of identifying a pathogen.

  • University Microfilms International 300 N, ZEEB RD., ANN ARBOR, Ml 48106
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “ Missing Page(s)” . if it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and tocontinue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • Parkinson's UK Open Access Policy
    100Open Access Policy Parkinson’s UK Open Access Policy Parkinson’s UK is the largest charitable funder of Parkinson’s research in Europe. So far, we’ve invested more than £93 million in ground-breaking research. Major advances have come from the research we’ve supported – helping to improve treatment and care for people living with Parkinson’s, both within the UK and worldwide. The main output of this research is new ideas and knowledge, which Parkinson’s UK expects its researchers to publish in high-quality, peer-reviewed journals. In line with other major funders, Parkinson’s UK believes the best way to share these papers as widely as possible is through free, unrestricted, online access. This means that the research we fund can be used to its best advantage by researchers all over the world, to the ultimate benefit of people affected by Parkinson’s. Specifically, Parkinson’s UK: ● expects authors of research papers to maximise the opportunities to make their results available for free ● requires electronic copies of any research papers that have been accepted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal, and are supported in whole or in part by Parkinson’s UK funding, to be made available through PubMed Central (PMC) and Europe PubMed Central (Europe PMC) as soon as possible and in any event within six months of the journal publisher's official date of final publication ● expects charity funded researchers to select publishing routes that ensure the work is available immediately on publication in its final published form, wherever such
