UM research team maps global patent landscape of optogenetics to facilitate clinical translation

Technology flow and cluster distribution of optogenetics

A research team led by Professor Hu Yuanjia in the Institute of Chinese Medical Sciences (ICMS) and the State Key Laboratory of Mechanism and Quality of Chinese Medicine at the University of Macau (UM), in collaboration with Zhang Yanfei, investigator at the Tianjin Institute of Industrial Biotechnology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has made new progress in analysing the global patent landscape of optogenetics. The team has systematically mapped the technological evolution, milestone patents, industry competition, key challenges, clinical breakthroughs, and translational prospects in the field, providing insights that may inform the development of novel, clinically applicable therapeutic approaches. The research findings have been published in the academic journal Nature Biotechnology.
