Ewha University Industry Collaboration Foundation has 1 pending office action in the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. This matter is assigned to 1 distinct examiner and is located within 1 distinct art unit. The current prosecution activity is focused on this single pending case.
SWITZER, JULIET CAROLINE is the busiest examiner, managing the 1 pending office action. This examiner is responsible for the entirety of the foundation's active office actions. The concentration in 1 art unit indicates a specific technical area of interest for the foundation's current patenting efforts.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (25%) |
| §102 only | 2 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (25%) |
