The European Patent Office (EPO), which began its activity in 1978, has established a common examination procedure and common standards for patenting all over Europe. The main characteristics of modern patent systems are discussed, which include the subject matter (technical inventions in Europe), priority rule (first to file), inventive step, a statutory duration of twenty years after filing, prior examination of applications before grant, inventive step as minimum degree of novelty, disclosure of the protected invention, and the possibility of various restrictions on patent rights, such as compulsory licensing or working requirements.

The successive stages of a research cycle are driven by specific cognitive operations: identification of an issue (driven by anomaly detection); exploration (by pattern recognition); formulation of an hypothesis (by analogy); iterative development and testing of a theory (by combination of ideas and causal reasoning respectively). The model is found to give a satisfactory account of the discovery of CRISPR, an immune system for prokaryotes first observed in 1987, fully decoded and turned into a gene editing technology in 2012 after a full research cycle. The study then draws conclusions regarding important aspects of science policy, like support to various types of research (e.g. basic, exploratory etc.) and the rewarding and evaluation of scientists.
