Reach through rights on future discoveries made with an Oncomouse - DuPont required that scientists give them rights to future inventions made using oncomice. These so-called reach-through rights give the licensor of a patented technology a share in any proceeds from a product even though the original technology is not incorporated into the end product. These rights are not an integral part of patent law but instead emerge as part of a negotiation over the terms of conditions of a contract to make use of a technology \u2013 they are part of the price of use. While common in the contracts between biotechnology and pharmaceutical firms, this was the first time a company had sought to impose such a provision on academic scientists.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
