Plenary Session on Opportunities and Challenges in Product Design
Monday, November 13, 2006 - 2:00pm to 2:45pm
Several different case studies in the areas of drug delivery, medical devices and biotherapeutics will be discussed. Each study will be examined in terms of the process and excitement of discovery, initial resistance by the scientific community to the discovery in some cases, the way very broad patents were received, how the technologies were transferred to companies, and the way they have been or are trying to be commercialized.
