Universite Claude Bernard Lyon 1 (Ucbl) currently manages 1 pending office action within the Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals technology area. This action is assigned to 1 distinct examiner, BAUER, NICOLA MARIA, and is being reviewed within 1 distinct art unit. This concentrated prosecution profile indicates that the university's current patent office activity is focused on a single technical matter and a single point of contact. Such a structure is common for institutions with a very specific technological focus.
The busiest examiner, BAUER, NICOLA MARIA, is responsible for 1 pending office action. As there is only 1 pending office action in total, this examiner is the sole official currently evaluating the university's pending intellectual property. The involvement of only 1 distinct art unit confirms that the prosecution is not spread across different technical departments. Consequently, the university's immediate prosecution success depends entirely on the interactions within this single art unit and with this specific examiner.
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.
