OWC Pharmaceutical Research Corp (OWCP)

Everyone, I'll give you a simple example to clarify this "provisional" patent thing. Let's say I come up with a unique idea, say a pillow that puts you to sleep. I have not developed the pillow yet but I want to protect my idea. In order to be able to protect my idea, the only thing I can do is to file a provisional patent application. Until I develop the product and prove that it works, my provisional patent will protect my invention from others to steal and develop it.

This is exactly what OWCP did! We all know that the psoriasis cream is not proven yet (although we ill know it pretty soon), same as the condom, the PTSD treatment, or any other thing OWCP is working on... OWCP management did the best thing they can do to protect these ideas until they actually have the product ready. They actually did something even better. Rather than filling for only US or Israel, they filed international patent applications!

Go OWCP!
