Abstract：

Patent system is to encourage inventions and is the most powerful weapon of inventors. While researchers should be familiar with the term "patent," they may not have clear ideas about the requirements for patentability and how to apply patents to their research results. My presentation will focus on filing and examination procedures of patents, the requirements for patentability, patent search, and pharmaceutical patent related issues.
