Washington College of Law at American University hosts the 7th Mid-Atlantic Patent Works-In-Progress (MAPWIP) Colloquium Sept. 28, 2018.
The event will be dedicated to discussing works in progress on any topic related to patent law, liberally defined. Papers should be in progress and not fully developed. Articles already submitted for publication are therefore not ideal. Participants agree to read all of the papers in advance. Each paper receives an hour of discussion. Typically, the presenter will take no more than 5 minutes to situate the project with the remaining time devoted to discussion of the paper. This format works best with a small number of committed participants. Six-to-nine papers will be accepted. You can also choose to participate as a dedicated commentator.
Deadline: Sept. 1, 2018
