Stacey L. Dogan

Professor Dogan is a leading scholar in intellectual property and competition law. She has written many articles on the application of trademark and copyright law to the online enviroment, with a particular emphasis on the role of intermediaries such as Napster and Google. Her most recent article, with her frequent co-author Mark Lemley of Stanford, considers the role of antitrust law in regulated industries, and contends that antitrust courts have an important role to play in curbing “regulatory games.”  

Professor Dogan has presented her research at numerous national and international conferences, and her writings have appeared in journals including the Stanford Law Review, Emory Law Journal, Iowa Law Review, and Texas Law Review.  In the fall of 2008, she became the co-editor-in-chief of the Journal of the Copyright Society, a peer-reviewed copyright journal. She is also the incoming chair of the Intellectual Property Section of the Association of American Law Schools.   She is an active participant in educational programs with the local bar, leading seminars and discussions for the Boston Bar Association, Massachusetts Continuing Legal Education and the Massachusetts Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts. She has also participated in executive training sessions through the Northeastern University high-technology MBA program.

Before joining the Northeastern faculty, Professor Dogan practiced with the Washington, DC, law firm of Covington & Burling, where she specialized in antitrust litigation. After law school, she practiced with Heller, Ehrman, White & McAuliffe in San Francisco and served as a law clerk to the Hon. Judith Rogers of the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia.
