I don't know about diabetes R&D in particular but in general, the only sure way to protect your IP rights is to seek advice from a patent attorney. There is some cost involved in getting a patent, but there might be amateur inventor websites with good info about your options.Hello!
I have a new technology idea for diabetes. It is in very early idea stage and I want to develop it further. Is there any support and expertise I can consult, having my rights protected?
Thanks!
