EXHIBITION MOOT
Hosted by IPRIA & CMCL
Melbourne University’s inaugural team in the Oxford International IP Moot presented an exhibition moot at the Melbourne Law School. The team, comprising final year LLB students Henry Boylan, Mason Clarke-Jones and Caroline Wong, has been working hard on a hypothetical involving the validity and infringement of a synthetic protein patent. This problem is extremely topical, raising many legal and ethical issues about intellectual property law and biotechnology. The team has progressed to the international oral round, and will be travelling to Oxford to compete in the competition on 20 and 21 March. This wass an opportunity to wish them well and observe their performance, and to thank their coaches, practice judges, and all those involved in their preparation.
The moot was presided over by the Honourable Justice Heerey of the Federal Court, along with Professor Sam Ricketson and Mr Warwick Rothnie.
