Comments from Speaker

Discover how AI-predicted protein structures are reshaping the biotech IP landscape in Japan. As AlphaFold has revolutionized structural biology, AI-driven protein structure predictions have reached unprecedented level of accuracy. Given the JPO’s strict enablement and written-description requirements, navigating patentability in Japan is critical for foreign practitioners.

This webinar covers cutting-edge strategies: integrating in silico data to satisfy JPO standards, leveraging trade secrets for AI platforms, and drafting robust claims. We will also explore how rapid technological advances may reshape examination guidelines and JPO practice.
