Matthew Gallon
I joined D Young & Co in 2016 and have strong technical experience in the life science sector.
My work involves the prosecution of UK, European and foreign patent applications for a variety of clients, including multinational companies, SMEs and academic institutions. I also work on opposition cases and observe oral proceedings at the European Patent Office (EPO).
Prior to joining D Young & Co, I completed my PhD in cell biology at the University of Bristol. My research focused on the molecular mechanisms of protein trafficking through the endosomal system.
