C.G. Moore, Ph.D., J.D., is a Partner at McBee Moore Woodward & Vanik IP, LLC., a boutique law firm based in Alexandria, Virginia, that specializes in intellectual property management in biotech, pharma, medical devices, and other life sciences-related industries. In this episode, C.G. describes his career path from experiencing the patenting process as a research assistant, to pursuing a Ph.D. in neuroscience at Johns Hopkins, then earning a J.D. and eventually co-founding his own law firm. We also discuss some of the challenges associated with learning to telework, as C.G. originally designed his firm (MMV IP Law) to function mostly remotely, preparing them well for the past year. He also generously shares his advice on navigating the patent process, from deciding when to file, to the necessary components that should be included for a successful application.Hosted by Roshan Chikarmane and Jenna Glatzer.
