In Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. v. Personal Genomics Taiwan, Inc., the Federal Circuit recently affirmed two PTAB decisions in IPRs filed by Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. (PacBio) that challenged a Personal Genomics Taiwan (PGT) patent, U.S. Patent No. 7,767,441, directed to a device for determining the identity of biomolecules. The court agreed both with the PTAB’s claim construction and its application of that construction to the prior art raised in the IPRs.
