Daniel Bernal-Serrano (left) and Ken Shadlen (right) with Tec Monterrey students.
Prof. Shadlen's research focuses largely on the global and cross-national politics of intellectual property (IP) and the implications that the new global IP regime presents for late development.
Last academic year, he spent time in Mexico City to work on his latest projects, relating to pharmaceutical patent linkage and generic drug regulation. He also gave a seminar on the effects of “linkage” (a particular aspect of Mexico’s pharmaceutical patent system) based on his joint project with Daniel Bernal-Serrano at Monterrey Tec.
This visit was following up from an earlier event at LSE, co-sponsored by the Department of International Development and the Global Health Initiative with Prof. Abril Campos in June 2024. Work on the resulting joint paper has already started and other collaborations between our Department of International Development and the School of Government and Public Transformation at Monterrey Tec may arise from these exchanges and visits.
