Intellectual Property for Researchers

Intellectual Property (IP) represents the property of your mind or intellect. It can be an invention, original design, or the practical application of an original idea. In science and medicine, IP can include methods of treatment, pharmaceuticals, vaccines, therapies, software or diagnostics.

St Vincent’s Hospital encourages our staff and students to develop ideas and translational research with real world applications. The IP & Commercialisation Officer will assist you turn your research into products increasing the impact and changing healthcare for the better.

If you believe you have developed translational IP through the course of your research please complete and submit one of the disclosure forms from the link below.

If you are unsure if you have developed IP through your research, or would like to learn more about IP and commercialisation please contact our IP & Commercialisation Officer, Emma-Louise Hunsley for support: E: emmalouise.hunsley@svha.org.au T: 0417 989 346
