Abstract

The author considers the recent House of Lords’ jurisprudence on “Biogen insufficiency”, arising from its 1997 decision in Biogen Inc v Medeva Plc, which holds that unless claims in the patent specification correspond to the teachings of the patent, the patent will be invalid.
'The Future', by Amrita Mishra, This piece, an ashen hand holding a murky crystal ball, draws on lines from the Leonard Cohen song, ‘The Future’, which says, ‘Things are going to slide, slide in all directions. Nothing you can measure any more’. It was done with MS Paint and Adobe Photoshop.
