Her research has been published in several periodicals, including the Iowa Law Review, the SMU Law Review, the Stanford Technology Law Review and the Harvard Journal of Law and Technology. She has been acknowledged as an innovator in the field of intellectual property and has won the Samsung-Stanford Patent Prize, as well as the Irving Oberman Memorial Award in Intellectual Property.
