Abstract:
This case highlights potential dilemmas encountered by postdoctoral fellows in a research setting. Who owns the patent when a project belongs to both a faculty member and a graduate student? It also looks at potential conflicts between students and faculty when research and manuscript ownership are not clearly specified.
