According to the current trend called "ME TOO" (I totally support the feminism), I thought may introduce some female academics in the IP laws, particularly in the US. In my opinion, there are three outstanding female scholars currently occupying the core position and peak of the US IP research. Perhaps, we can call them Fantasy Three or Charlie's angels (I am kidding).
