IP Advocate promotes the preservation of faculty and student researchers' and inventors' intellectual property rights. We accomplish this by providing the most current information on securing and protecting your intellectual property rights.

IP Advocate is currently launching a new section of our site that explores the longstanding tradition of misinformation promulgated by university administrations and professional organizations about the Bayh-Dole Act that govern and protect faculty inventor rights.

In our mission to serve as a voice for our growing academic research community, IP Advocate will actively debate issues and university policies that pertain to such subjects as compulsory ownership claims and mandatory assignment of your intellectual property.

Receive alerts of changes that could impact your IP rights. Be notified of the latest news on university technology transfer policies and commercialization. Register now for IP Advocate's Notifications on these and other critical topics to keep current on how to protect your intellectual property today.
