Significant algae research was performed in the 1970s and 80s. Technology patented in this era is now in the public domain (i.e., the patents have expired). A team of ASU law students -- Matt Moellering (team lead), Paige Pataky and Kyle Shelton -- has complied a list of public domain algae patents. Our goal is to facilitate access to this technology for current algae researchers and implemeters. Along these same lines, ASU law student Brian Webb has begun compiling a list of algae-related scientific publications. Documents from both efforts are linked below.
