At Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø (LUH), scientists are regularly generating interesting research results. Some constructions, such as technical inventions, are eligible for protection of industrial property – i.e., are patentable. The LUH examines whether an invention is patentable and whether a patent application would be economically reasonable on a case-by-case basis. Where applicable, the guidelines of funders are taken into account as part of this process.
