Associate, Patent Attorney London
Profile of Rebecca Price

I joined D Young & Co in 2017 and have a strong technical background in biochemistry. I enjoy applying my scientific knowledge and formulating complex legal arguments whilst working at the forefront of technology in the patents field.

Since joining the firm I have gained experience in the prosecution of UK, European and foreign patent applications for a variety of clients, including multinational companies, SMEs and academic institutions.

Prior to joining D Young & Co, I completed my PhD in the molecular and cellular basis of infection at Imperial College London. My research involved determining the effects of treating M. marinum infection of zebrafish with an antimicrobial peptide using a variety of techniques including fluorescence imaging, tissue culture and qRT-PCR – gene expression profiling.
