Congratulations to Professor Sarah Fackrell @design-law.bsky.social at Chicago-Kent College of Law for her article “The Counterfeit Sham” in Harvard Law Review, discussing the important differences between counterfeiting and design patent infringement. Read more here: https://buff.ly/40tqKNs

I am so proud of this joint work with Mike Schuster in Scientific Reports. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39814744/ “Gender Inventorship Equity in Patent Prosecution,” shows how each stage of examination individually contributes to a lower aggregate grant rate for female inventors. (1/2)

So excited to celebrate the publication of "Inequality on Appeal: The Intersection of Race and Gender in Patent Litigation", co-authored with Paul Gugliuzza and @rebouche.bsky.social. Thanks to the editors at UC Davis Law Review! lawreview.law.ucdavis.edu/archives/58/...

SO proud of my colleague and mentor at Chicago-Kent, who wrote an amazing article in HLR about Schedule A counterfeiting claims, and detailing how patent infringement is not the same as counterfeiting. This is a must-read from the design patent expert, @design-law.bsky.social Sarah Fackrell!

I am so excited to get to share the final version of "The Counterfeit Sham" with you all: harvardlawreview.org/print/vol-13...

Doing some research... Does anyone know how USPTO technology centers 2100, 2400, and 2600 were formed? Who decides to make new technology centers and who decides what categories are important? Would love some insight!!

Had a great time with the World's Best IP Prof's at the Chicago-Kent College of Law's Chicagoland IP Workshop. Thanks to @design-law.bsky.social, @cathaysmith.bsky.social, @graemedinwoodie.bsky.social, Greg Reilly, Paul Rogerson, and Felicia Caponigri for making our IP faculty feel like a family!

Sometimes, as a law professor, you get to be part of something truly spectacular. Thank you to Jessica Lai and @kathybowrey.bsky.social for this book and inviting me to contribute a chapter (www.elgaronline.com/edcollchap/b...). @jessicasilbey.bsky.social - Couldn't have done it without you!

Nov 25! Mike Schuster and I are presenting a new piece called "Patent Trifecta" at WIPO in Geneva. We'll be examining the gender gap and presenting data on interactive effects between inventors, examiners, and attorneys. Register here to see everyone's scholarly work: www.wipo.int/meetings/en/...

Please join us online next Friday, September 27 for the annual Chicago-Kent College of Law, Illinois Institute of Technology Supreme Court IP Review. More details (and a link to sign up for CLE credit) are available here:

One year down, forever to go! So glad I have this amazing community of Chicago-Kent IP Scholars for year 2 in Chicago!! @design-law.bsky.social

A BIG thank you to Sarah Burstein @design-law.bsky.social for a wonderful review of Access to Justice for Black Inventors in Jotwell! jotwell.com. This piece was such a special project to work on, and I'm so appreciative of the continued recognition! cdn.vanderbilt.edu/vu-wordpress...

I'm excited to share that my article, Patently Inequitable, is forthcoming in Boston University Law Review! You can read a draft here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.... Comments are welcome!

I am so excited to welcome the one and only Sarah Burstein @design-law.bsky.social to Chicago-Kent this fall! I cannot express how lucky I am to be in such a wonderfully rich community of scholars and colleagues who I can learn from each and every day.

Some personal news: This summer, I’ll be joining the faculty at Chicago-Kent College of Law. I am so excited to return to Chicago and to join such an amazing intellectual community.
