Welcome to the IP Think Tank podcast for Monday 23 March 2009.  In this week’s call, regular panellists Jeremy Phillips and Duncan Bucknell are joined by Joff Wild and Jose Carlos Vaz e Diaz to discuss:

• The recent decision of the Superior Court of Justice of Brazil which moved the date of effect of TRIPS and cut patent terms; and
• The status and IP implications for the pharmaceutical industry in South America, India, Europe and the United States.

We hope you enjoy this week’s show, and as always, we look forward to your comments and feedback.
