Dear all, I am happy to announce a public seminar titled "Intellectual Property Rights: Wrong for Developing Countries?" to be held at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington DC. The featured speakers are Bruce Lehman of the International Intellectual Property Institute and John Wilbanks of Science Commons at Creative Commons.
Details on the seminar are at <http://www7.nationalacademies.org/policyfellows/Events.html> (see Seminar #2). If you are in the Washington DC area on July 25, please consider attending. I will be there, and hope to make the discussion veer toward geographic data. -- Puneet Kishor Science and Technology Policy Graduate Fellow Board on Earth Science Resource/Division on Earth and Life Studies Board on International Scientific Organizations/Policy and Global Affairs Division THE NATIONAL ACADEMIES Advisers to the Nation on Science, Engineering, and Medicine 500 5th Street, NW, Keck 615 Washington, DC 20001 Ph: (202) 334 1425 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Nelson Inst. for Env.
