Event Description: 

Join us for a virtual presentation exploring the practical implications of incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) tools in academic research and innovation. As AI becomes increasingly integrated into research methodologies, understanding how to properly document and manage AI assistance in the invention process is crucial for protecting intellectual property rights.

This interactive session will address key concerns facing researchers, including:

  • Strategic approaches to incorporating AI tools in your research workflow
  • Best practices for documenting AI assistance during invention conception and development
  • Practical guidelines for maintaining transparent records of AI interactions (prompts and outputs)
  • Protecting IP potential while leveraging AI capabilities
  • Understanding the concept of hybrid inventorship in the AI era

Hosted by Martin Teschl, Director of BD & Licensing, our guest speaker David Sanker, Founder of Sanker IP, will provide actionable insights and practical frameworks for researchers looking to optimize their use of AI while safeguarding their intellectual property interests.
