<b>Special Jefferson Lab Seminar<br>
<br>
HOW THE NEW AMERICA INVENTS ACT AND FIRST-TO-FILE PROVISIONS WILL
AFFECT INVENTORS AT JLAB<br>
<br>
Michael Badagliacca<br>
DOE Patent Office</b><br>
<br>
When the America Invents Act goes into effect on March 16, it will
introduce fundamental changes to the U.S. patent system. Michael
Badagliacca, DOE Patent Office, will discuss how these changes will
impact inventors at Jefferson Lab. He will discuss the America
Invents Act, specifically address how the conversion from a "first
to invent" to a "first to file" system will affect future patents,
and answer questions on the New Act. All members of the JLab
community interested in learning more about the America Invents Act
and its new provisions are invited to attend.<br>
<br>
Just before the seminar, Jefferson Lab management and Technology
Review Committee members will take a few minutes to give "Bright
Ideas" recognition to lab staff that made patent disclosures of new
Intellectual Property in 2012.<br>
