CIPLIT director to speak at international IP conference

Professor Roberta Kwall will be a principal speaker at an international intellectual property conference to be held at the Radzyner School of Law in Israel in March. The conference, "The Measure of Intellectual Property: Contemporary Challenges," will take place from March 10-11.
