Well, my first Web page (lost to the ages) won a hallowed place on
Mirsky's "Worst of the Web." Now you'll just have to
settle for this rather quiet page, basking in its understated elegance.
Who I am
I am a Patent
Attorney at Foley Hoag LLP in Boston, where I
prepare and prosecute patent applications in a wide variety of
disciplines,
including biotechnology, physics, mechanical engineering, and medical
devices. View my
CV for more detail.
Where I've been
I grew up in Cherry Hill, New Jersey
(that's Exit 4 on the Turnpike) and graduated from Cherry
Hill High School East in 1989.
While there, I most enjoyed playing clarinet in the Wind
Ensemble, editing the school newspaper, Eastside, and attending
the Governor's School of the
Arts. I moved down to Miami for college,
where I studied biomedical engineering and graduated magna cum
laude in 1993. I entered the MD/PhD program that fall.
I graduated in 2001
from the MD/PhD
Program at the University of
Miami
School of
Medicine (mugshots through the years).
I studied developmental biology in
the Department of
Physiology and Biophysics, receiving the Ph.D. in 1999
(graduation
pictures). I completed clinical training for my M.D. in 2001. I
used to have two cats. They now live in Washington, D.C.
After medical school, I attended Boston College Law School and graduated
in 2004. I became a lawyer
that year.
Some links I like
I work in the Patent
Group at Foley Hoag LLP. I
am a former member of the MD/PhD Program and
the Department of Physiology and
Biophysics at the University of Miami School of Medicine.
I have a
professional page in Miami.
I once gave a lecture on the World Wide Web.
I visit the U.S. Patent and Trademark
Office website every day. I find the Online Mendelian
Inheritance In Man a useful reference for genes and
gene-related
diseases and the Internet Movie Database a
great source for all matters cinematic. The Classical Music MIDI Archive has
an impressive collection of encoded music. I host toolpat.com, which provides a set of
tools for patent practitioners. My favorite tool is the MPEP search, which permits you you
perform a full-text search of the Manual of Patent Examining Procedure.
