ABOUT JESSICA SMART
I am a Partner in the Chemistry team at Kilburn & Strode and my practice is focused on high value industrial chemistry and pharmaceutical chemistry. I am experienced in technical areas including diagnostic imaging agents, formulations for pharmaceutical applications, low Global Warming Potential fluorocarbons, catalysts, medical devices, composite materials and polymers.I manage complex global patent portfolios directed to commercial products (including FDA-approved products) and work closely with my clients to develop patent prosecution, opposition and freedom to operate strategies that suit their individual needs. I have considerable experience in opposition and appeal proceedings before the European Patent Office (EPO) with a high success rate and I am a UPC Representative. I regularly defend European patents, maintaining valuable claim scopes and also have success acting as an opponent.I joined the profession in 2012 and qualified as a UK and European Patent Attorney in 2015 after graduating with an MChem in Chemistry from the University of Oxford. In my final year, my research involved investigation into the use of 1,2-disubstituted ferrocene molecules as anion sensors.
