Biological Arts

We support inventors across biological and life-science disciplines, from diagnostic platforms and biomarkers to biomedical devices and bioinformatics. Our team pairs technical rigor with prosecution strategy to protect complex wet-lab workflows, instrumentation, and data-driven discoveries.

Computational Biology and Bioinformatics

Modern biology is increasingly data-driven. Our team includes patent attorneys with Ph.D. expertise in computational neurobiology and deep experience in bioinformatics. We understand the specific challenges of protecting:

  • In Silico Discovery: Algorithms that predict protein structure or identify drug candidates.
  • Genomic Pipelines: Methods for processing and analyzing next-generation sequencing (NGS) data.
  • Diagnostic Algorithms: Machine learning models trained on biological datasets to predict patient outcomes.

What Makes Biotech Patents Hard

Biological systems can be variable, and the prior art can be crowded. We draft specifications that preserve multiple fallbacks and focus on reproducible technical details, including control conditions, ranges, alternative embodiments, and data-driven support for claimed performance.

Claim Strategy That Matches The Product

Where appropriate, we build coverage across:

  • Composition and kit claims
  • Method and workflow claims tied to measurable outcomes
  • Device and system claims for instrumentation and automation
  • Software and data processing claims when the innovation is technical and specific

How We Work

  1. We align on the product, the differentiators, and what competitors are likely to copy
  2. We map the invention into claimable units and define fallback positions
  3. We draft the application with clear definitions, examples, and figure support
  4. We prosecute with a focus on enforceable scope and a clean record
