NIH will be hosting an informational webinar about its recent request for information (RFI) and draft proposal to incorporate patient access planning in the commercialization process for NIH-owned inventions.

The webinar will take place on Tuesday, June 11, 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm ET. Presenters will provide background on NIH’s Intramural Research Program, discuss patent licensing at NIH, review the concept of access planning, and discuss the RFI and draft policy proposal.

Individuals and organizations interested in learning about the RFI and gaining a better understanding of the NIH Intramural Research Program’s patent licensing process are encouraged to attend. This webinar is free of charge though pre-registration is required. Participants are invited to submit questions for NIH to address during the webinar. Participant questions must be received by Friday, June 7, 2024.
