マイケル・ジェスパーセン博士(通称マイク)は、医薬品、エネルギー、化学・材料科学産業のクライアントに対し、変化する特許環境における技術革新の保護について助言を提供しています。マイクは製品開発の初期段階からクライアントと緊密に連携し、技術的・事業的目標に合わせた世界規模の特許戦略を構築します。化学と材料科学における独自の多様な技術的知見を活かし、製品開発と知的財産ポートフォリオ構築を並行して推進する指針を示します。
Mike counsels clients across a diverse range of technology areas in the life sciences and energy sectors, including pharmaceutical formulations, gene therapies, fuel cells, ethanol production, carbon capture, semiconductor polishing, polymer formulations, foods and beverages, glasses, and coatings. In addition to handling all phases of patent drafting and worldwide patent prosecution for companies of all sizes, from startup ventures to some of the world’s foremost technology companies, Mike is well versed in providing opinions on patentability, invalidity, and freedom-to-operate.
Before joining Foley, Mike was a research chemist and National Research Council postdoctoral fellow at the Air Force Research Laboratory’s Materials and Manufacturing Directorate, where he developed advanced materials concepts in surfaces and coatings, polymer nanocomposites, nanoelectronics, bionanomaterial hybrids, photovoltaics, and nanomaterials synthesis and characterization. Collectively, Mike has published more than 20 articles and a book chapter covering a range of nanomaterials and related technologies.
