Ondřej Woznica:Protecting Your Brain Babies: Intellectual Property for Researchers and Other Brave Souls

TTO and Faculty of Law, Masaryk University

Abstarct: This workshop introduces the essentials of intellectual property (IP): what it is, how to protect it, and what you need to know when using it. We will address practical questions such as: What is copyright? How do you obtain a patent? Can copyrighted works be used in teaching? What does a Creative Commons license mean? By understanding these fundamentals, you will gain the ability to identify intellectual property and apply this knowledge in your everyday academic practice. Building on this foundation, the workshop will then focus on technology and knowledge transfer within the university environment by exploring how research outputs can be effectively shared and utilized beyond academia.
