                 Friday-Saturday, February 27-28, 2009


      DESCRIPTION:

      The Drake Intellectual Property Law Center is proud to
      present the 2009 Intellectual Property Scholars Roundtable.
      This roundtable brings together intellectual property and
      technology law scholars from around the world to present
      their works-in-progress. This interdisciplinary roundtable
      provides academics with a forum for sharing their latest
      research and an opportunity for peer networking. It also
      includes a new, innovative segment covering pedagogical
      issues in the area of intellectual property law. Because
      the event does not include concurrent sessions,
      presentation slots are limited and are given out on a
      first-come, first-served basis. If you would like to
      present at this by-invitation-only event, please contact:
