Are you interested in learning more about patent searching?
Register today to attend this in-person, interactive session February 25 from 10-11:30 a.m. CT at the Southwest Regional Outreach Office in Dallas. United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) experts show you how to conduct a patent search using the Patent Public Search tool.
You will learn:

This new web-based patent search tool replaces legacy search tools Public-Examiner’s Automated Search Tool (PubEast), Public-Web-based Examiner’s Search Tool (PubWest), Patent Full-Text and Image Database (PatFT), and Patent Application Full-Text and Image Database (AppFT), which were retired in September 2022.
