Congratulations to Samantha Zyontz, a Senior Research Associate at the Searle Civil Justice Institute here at George Mason. Samantha and two co-authors, Michael Mazzeo (Kellogg) and Jonathan Hillel (Northwestern), are one of several recipients of the Inaugural Samsung-Stanford Patent Prize for their paper Are Patent Infringement Awards Excessive?: The Data Behind the Patent Reform Debate. Its a really neat project and worth a read for those following the field. No link available as of yet. The papers will be presented at the February 8 patent remedies conference to be held at Stanford Law School on Friday, February 18, 2011.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Samantha on a number of empirical projects — both at the Searle Center at Northwestern and now at George Mason. No doubt the many who have also had the opportunity to work with Sam will agree this is a well deserved accolade. Congratulations!
