Our recent IP Program Celebration was unforgettable! We celebrated Professor Ed Lee’s final semester as an IP Faculty member and welcomed Professors Sarah Burstein, Jordana Goodman, and Cathay Smith to the IP Faculty. Thanks to those who joined us for a night of new beginnings!
Now on SSRN, my new paper Misleading Patent Signals. Audiences can be misled by patented status if they overestimate reliability of info it should convey (eg, tech distinctness) or treat it as conveying info it doesn't (eg, quality, financial promise) papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.…
My new article - Patent Office Power & Discretionary Denials - is now published in the @ConnLRev. Discretionary denials continue to be a controversial PTAB practice. The surrounding debate also offers lessons for greater PTO power in the patent system. opencommons.uconn.edu/law_re…
The patent world erupted into debate when the Patent Office announced its discretion to deny inter partes review. Professor Greg Reilly (@ProfGReilly, @ChicagoKentLaw) leaves no stone unturned in his pathbreaking scholarly analysis of the practice.

We @ChicagoKentLaw are so excited that Jordi is joining our faculty. She is really going to strengthen our IP program and patent expertise. Her scholarship is rigorous, fascinating, and vitally important. So happy for this addition to our scholarly community!!!
It's official! I'm off the market and will join Chicago-Kent College of Law as an Assistant Professor in August 2023. Chicago, here I come! I'll be teaching patents, property, and DEI in IP. Thank you so much for all of your support!
This is shocking and so deeply sad. I greatly enjoyed discussing - and sometimes debating - patent law issues with Dmitry. One of the first people I asked to read whenever I had a draft - generous with his time and incisive with his comments. Too young to be gone.
New from me: Patent Office Power & Discretionary Denials. Defends PTO power to adopt discretionary denials (despite vigorous challenges). Labels these challenges "reverse Oil States" as other half of patent debates adjusts to more admin power in patent law papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.…
I'm excited to chair @ChicagoKentLaw faculty hiring committee for 2022-2023. We expect to hire multiple positions (entry-level or lateral) in various areas, including corporate/securities & IP. Please apply if interested or recommend others to consider!
Sometimes you get to meet your hero! Thanks to Rose Lavelle for the autograph and brief chat with my daughter, one of her biggest fans! Great experience at our first Red Stars (and NWSL) game - high quality soccer and the chance for the kids to meet a bunch of players!
Congratulations to my colleague Noah on the SBA teaching award. A real credit to him in the early stage of his career. And couldn’t of think of three better people for the other awards than Dawn, Jenna, and Steve!!! Three of the absolute best at C-K!!!
I'm very honored to have been recognized as Professor of the Year by the @KentLawSBA! Huge congratulations to the other awardees @DawnKYoung, Jenna Abhijeet, and Steve Sowle.
A federal jury in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas found April 8 that Daiichi’s breast-cancer treatment Enhertu infringes Seagen’s patent.
