My Dream of Obtaining a Patent

 

                    I always think that if the determination is present, we will get what we want. Since I began PhD in 2009, I always dream to obtain a patent. A patent is a property right for an invention granted by a government to the inventor. I started thinking about choosing a new and useful topic for my thesis. I decided to choose a topic in nanotechnology, because it is a new and interesting field. Nanotechnology refers to the study of compounds of 100 nanometers or smaller in one dimension. I chose the subject "Biosynthesis of nanoparticles by marine macro-algae and their medical application" and I carried out many experiments. Through those experiments , I have reached a new method for preparing nanoparticles. To protect my idea, I have made ​​a request for filing a patent at the European Patent Office to give me the right to prevent others from making, using, or, selling the invention without my permission. This month, on the June 5, 2012, my patent application has been filed. Now, I'm waiting for the results and I am confident that with persistence we can achieve any dream.
