Andreas joined Mathys & Squire in 2008 and qualified as a European Patent Attorney in 2011. He has a degree in Microbiology and Virology and a PhD from the University of Warwick. His PhD work focused on the molecular genetics, physiology and biochemistry of methane-oxidizing bacteria, and resulted in the authoring of several scientific publications and presentations at international symposia.
Andreas' principle areas of expertise are in the fields of microbiology and molecular biology, with particular emphasis on technologies including RNAi, gene therapy, re-targeting of bacterial toxins, vaccines, pharmaceuticals and diagnostic assays.
His practice areas include drafting and prosecution of global patent families and freedom-to-operate advice. In addition, he regularly spends time "in-house" working for a UK biotechnology client.
He also holds a Certificate in Intellectual Property Law from London University, and is a native German speaker.
