WIPO Pearl - 0 views

  •  
    The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) launchd a new portal last week, providing technical terminology from patents in ten languages. This is an interesting way to help share knowledge and connect scientists who speak different languages. It has a really cool Concept Map Search function too!

    Yes, a very comprehensive resource on Intellectual property. Thanks for sharing. However, I always check to see when a website was last updated (often indicated at the bottom of a page). WIPO does have this here, but on searching the website under 2014, there updates as recent as October 2014.

    Agreed that this is a very useful site for intellectual property rights. However a word of caution - there are also differences in the way these rights are dealt with in individual countries, due to those county's laws.

    This site is very helpful in terms of resources, such as definitions of terms and seminars for learning how to apply IP

    Thanks for sharing this information, it increases the understanding about Intellectual Property.

"Organización Mundial de la Riqueza Intelectual" - 0 views

    Hacia una La Declaración de Ginebra es un paso ingente hacia la creación de una ámplia coalición de personas, organizaciones y países 1 que piden que la comunidad internacional rediseñe los objetivos y los mecanismos para otorgar control monopolístico sobre los diferentes tipos de conocimiento.Ofrece muchas sugerencias concretas y constructivas acerca de cambios en los objetivos, políticas y prioridades de la OMPI, y aporta argumentos abundantes y certeros para rediseñar los tratos de copyright y patentes para que sirvan mejor al interés público de toda la humanidad.

    Porqué si los monopolios están penados por la ley, y Microsoft pagó una multa, y google está por hacerlo, quizá youtube... ¿porqué no refrecar las leyes del copyright y penalizar la monopolización del conocimiento? Debería impulsarse, por ejemplo, editoriales de bajo costo para mayor acceso a los lectores, deberían de permitir esa clase de competencia, o recursos educativos accesibles respecto a la educación. Debería de ser accesible la información y la educación sobre la salud, formas de mejorar el estido de vida, la salud y bienestar emocional, y los conocimientos de diferente índole, no sólo invirtiendo dinero y tiempo es justo para obtener el acceso al conocimiento especializado, pero la apertura ¿cómo puede mediarse para que no genere problemas? En el sentido de que un profesionista y un no profesionista tengan el mismo conocimiento sobre una especialización, pero uno tiene título y otro no, se restan, para quienes invierten, oportunidades de empleo en su educación formal, y para quienes aprenden por su cuenta, se abren oportunidades y las empresas prefieren pagar menos a estas personas aún cuando no tienen preparación en un sistema educativo formal. Esto impacta en la sociedad, pues al menos en México sucede...

Research4Life - A short overview - 1 views

  •  
    This is a brief synopsis covering the main aspects of Research4Life, including information about the creators and stakeholders, criteria for access, its composition and training given. In 2001 Research4Life was initially started by WHO with HINARI (Health InterNetwork Access to Research Initiative) to enable developing countries to access free or greatly subsidized biomedical and health literature. From 2003-09 this type of access to the AGORA, OARE and ARDI databases of scientific journals and books became available to over 77 poorer developing countries by Cornell and Yale Universities, FAO, UNEP and WIPO with other publishers. Institutions are required to meet specific criteria and categories to be entitled to the right to use of Research4Life resources. A few case studies are described which clearly show the impact Research4Life has had so far. We are informed of the future plans for the project too. This article gives a clear insight into how first world organisations are giving researchers and the populace of less developed countries the opportunity to advance their own research and development by providing access to current information and data.

    As a librarian, research4life boosts my morale. Truly, librarians can be the unsung heroes in scientific researches. Librarians happily serve researchers without expecting anything but ensuring that they get the information they need. Research4life values the role of the librarians in the field of research and I appreciate that. I wish to express my gratitude to resesarch4life organization for giving value to the contribution of librarians in research

State of Intellectual Property Worldwide - 1 views

    Here's some interesting topline figures year 2012 report about the state of intellectual property around the world. It quickly shows us the countries that take the business of innovation & patents seriously. For 2013 World Property Indicators, here's the link: http://www.wipo.int/edocs/pubdocs/en/intproperty/941/wipo_pub_941_2013.pdf

    I like how this article breaks down where the patents are coming from in the world. I also like this because it always reminds me of the story (that is likely untrue) that the US patent office was almost closed at the beginning of the 20th century because all the good ideas had already been thought of. Progress marches on!
