"As an intern at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, I apply the principles from my intllectual property courses every day I go in to work. I've evaluated hundreds of technologies for patentability, worked with outside patent counsel to prepare and file a provisional patent application, and helped draft confidentiality and licensing agreements. The best part is that the researchers I work with are some of the brightest and most innovative in the world. It's been a wonderfully enriching experience."
