The Cell for Studies in Intellectual Property Rights (CSIPR) is a student body guided by our
faculty in charge Professor (Dr.) Ghayur Alam. We are dedicated to research in the field of
Intellectual Property Rights (IPR). CSIPR aims to help students and professionals better
understand the various contemporary concerns regarding IPR and to facilitate dissemination of
knowledge of intellectual property laws. It handles amongst other things, the publication of the
yearly flagship blind peer reviewed ‘NLIU Journal of Intellectual Property Law’ (Journal) the
editor of which is Prof (Dr.) Ghayur Alam.
The Journal was launched in 2012 and has since published eight volumes. It aims to contribute to
the development of a just, efficient and equitable regime of intellectual property law and to
research the dynamic intersection of the academic and transactional worlds that the intellectual
property laws present. The Journal has featured articles written by academics, solicitors and law
students from all around the world and aims to reach even more people with each new edition.
