KEYNOTE PRESENTATION: "PCT, How it works: An explanation of the procedures
and requirements of the Patent Cooperation Treaty" by Louis O. Maassel.
SPEAKERS:
"The EPO and the PCT: Some particular implications of the PCT in relation
with the EPO" by Michel Marchau
"The Complete Biosequence Patent Search: Mission Impossible?" by Robert
Austin
"Biosequence analysis for novices" by Heahyun Yoo, Ph.D.
"Creating a Higher Value, Higher Capacity Patent Information Service:
Perspectives from a Patent Attorney" by Ralph Schroeder
"Free-text searching: Freedom or Frustration?" by Susan E. Cullen
POSTER SESSIONS: To be determined
TIPS & TRICKS: "Tips, Tricks, and Problems in Cross System Searching".
We all know that one online search system is not enough for many complex
search problems. We need to consult databases on Dialog, Questel/Orbit,
STN, and perhaps Lexis, and Factiva too using the special search features
available on each system. How does one approach this?
Moderator: Martin Goffman

VENDOR ROAST
Questions and answers for and from a panel of vendor representatives. An
