Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming industries, including the life sciences industry, from drug discovery and diagnostics to medical devices and manufacturing. With that transformation comes a critical challenge: crafting strategies to protect AI-related innovations. Strategies for protecting AI innovations are unique.
