This lecture series, organised in co-operation with the European IP Helpdesk, addresses the IP-related aspects of EU-funded projects in five areas. It introduces the main aspects of IP management: notably IP ownership, protection and exploitation. Each lecture explores the interface between patents and the respective technical field. The lectures may be of interest to a variety of audiences, from researchers to technology transfer officers. The online sessions include Q&A and are complemented with optional self-paced courses.
