Biography
Tom specialises in biotech and pharmaceutical patent litigation and has been involved in some of the most significant patent cases in the UK in recent years. Conor v Angiotech and Eli Lilly v Human Genomes Sciences both went to the House of Lords/Supreme Court (the highest appeal court), while Dr Reddy v Eli Lilly only reached the Court of Appeal but is the definitive case in the law of selection patents in the UK. Tom has published many articles on patent law issues, including in the CIPA Journal (the official journal of the Chartered Institute of Patent Attorneys in the UK).
