Licensing increases sharply when a patent is included in the Medicines Patent Pool. In the November issue, by Alberto Galasso (@AlbertoGalasso) and Mark Schankerman zurl.co/lmqsQ

Friendly reminder⭐️⭐️ deadline coming up The NBER Innovation Information Initiative (I3), a data collaborative for open innovation data and related analytics, tools, and metrics, will run the second cohort of Open Data Fellows for 2025, after a successful first program in 2023. The I3 will award five or more fellowships of $1500 each to graduate students in economics, innovation, entrepreneurship, or related fields. The fellowships aim to broaden the range of datasets, tools and documentation accessible to the research community, support a new generation of researchers in producing and sharing high-quality, reusable research data and code, and provide a network of support for these researchers. Fellows will be given the opportunity to present posters of their work at a future I3 meeting. Specifically, I3 fellowships will support students to contribute new datasets, tools, code, and/or metadata to the innovation community. These contributions may come in the form either of a new project, or an existing project in need of further development. We are particularly keen to support students working on creating validation datasets. We intend for this program to include a diversity of work. Our primary requirement is that your project is developed with the intention of public dissemination in mind. If you have ideas for projects beyond the types described above, feel free to contact Bhaven Sampat (bhaven.sampat@asu.edu) and/or Agnes Cameron (agnescam@mit.edu), or just submit. The fellowships will run from January to December 2025. The program is intended to be supportive, collaborative, and not a major time commitment, with periodic one-on-one and group meetings to share progress and provide guidance. This call is open to current graduate (Masters or PhD) students or those who graduated in the past six months. International applicants, including those on US student visas, may have specific considerations that could affect the payment process. We recommend consulting your international students office prior to applying to determine your eligibility to receive fellowship stipend payments and travel reimbursement from the NBER. Please submit your proposal using this google form by November 18th, 2024: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Thank you for circulating @jemsjournal! We find that the Alice Supreme Court decision significantly increased legal uncertainty in patent examination. Our analysis highlights the need for further research on how greater legal uncertainty affects the innovation ecosystem.

Thrilled to see PaECTER’s success validated in study of NBER researchers! 🎉A recent @nberpubs working paper confirms that our #PaECTER model is best-in-class in #patent similarity #analysis 🔍 (1/7)

We are #hiring at @UMassAmherst @resec_umass! Looking for an Assistant Professor (tenure-track) in #HealthEconomics! JOE link here (deadline 11/15/2024): aeaweb.org/joe/listing.ph…. I'm on the hiring committee and happy to answer questions😊#EconTwitter #FacultyHiring

Deadline is tomorrow! Would love to see you (and your datasets) in December. Also check out our website at i3open.org

The next meeting of the NBER Innovation Information Initiative (I3) Technical Working Group will be held on December 6 and 7, 2024 immediately following the NBER Place-Based Policies and Entrepreneurship meeting. There will be an in-person meeting in Cambridge, MA along with a virtual component on Zoom for those who are unable or choose not to attend in person. Presenters are encouraged to attend in-person. This meeting is supported by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. The aim of I3 is to support the production and dissemination of open data for research on innovation, science, entrepreneurship, and related fields. The Technical Working Group will feature "deep dive" presentations of novel datasets or research tools (including efforts in progress that would benefit from community feedback or collaboration) that are or will be made openly available. We are primarily interested in presentations on new data and tools rather than research findings. Please submit either (a) an extended abstract of five pages or less describing the new dataset or tool you propose to present, its potential value to the research community, and your plans for public dissemination, or (b) a research paper that fully describes data construction (or has a comprehensive data appendix) along with a short cover note describing the value of the dataset (or tool) to the research community, what you would focus on in your presentation, and your plans for dissemination. If you have a paper you would like considered for presentation, please upload it here conference.nber.org/confsubmit/bac… by 11:59 pm EST on September 27, 2024. Submissions from researchers with and without NBER affiliations, from early career scholars, and from researchers from under-represented groups are welcome. The presentations will also be livestreamed on the NBER's YouTube channel and students, colleagues or others who might be interested may watch the presentations. @I3Open

Grateful for renewed support of the Innovation Information Initiative ("i3", @i3open) by the Alfred P. @SloanFoundation! Our next Technical Working Group meeting will be Friday afternoon December 6 and Saturday morning. Submit a "data paper" here: conference.nber.org/confsubmit/bac…. Huge thanks to I3 founder Adam Jaffe, who passes the baton to me this year but will remain on our Steering Committee. I3 would never have happened w/o him.🙏
