J A Kemp Webinar: Medical Devices at the EPO – What Can I Claim?

Patents directed to medical devices can be of great commercial value. However, claims relating to medical devices can fall foul of the European patent office’s statutory exclusions of medical methods, so care needs to be taken both during drafting and prosecution at the EPO. This webinar will discuss some of the issues faced in applications relating to medical devices at the EPO, and provide guidance on how to optimise claim coverage.

Topics will include:

•    An overview of EPO exclusions from patentability relevant to medical devices

•    Examples of claim types which are allowed at the EPO

•    Practical tips for drafting and prosecution
