The first article, “Lessons in Evaluation: Shaping Successful Policy,
Business Decisions, and Legal Outcomes” by Senior Managing
Director Daniel Hanson, Consultant Kajal Kumar, Analyst Margot
Cintract, and Affiliated Consultant Francis Ostermeijer, examines
how evaluation techniques can support policymakers, courts, and
businesses in navigating complex decisions. The authors offer
guidance on choosing credible methods and avoiding common pitfalls
and highlight the role evaluation plays in shaping policy and
resolving legal disputes.
The second article, “Looking for Patterns in Pharmaceuticals’ Use
of AI Patents” by Consultant Kiefer Ahn, explores
pharmaceutical patent applications that incorporate AI components,
using USPTO and AIPD data to identify emerging trends. The paper
highlights the importance of these developments for innovation,
