Follow @PatentScholar for More IP Scholarship

For readers who aren't following on Twitter (and with apologies to those who are), I thought you might be interested to know that I regularly post links to SSRN abstracts that catch my eye. (I see far more interesting-sounding IP scholarship than I can read, and certainly more than I can blog about!) So if you want to see more IP scholarship (as well as a few other patent-related things), check out the Tweets from @PatentScholar once in a while. Here is a sampling of recent Tweets:
