Digital Health Tech
Digital health technologies are transforming healthcare at a rapid pace. From artificial pancreases that continuously monitor and regulate glucose levels, to AI-driven platforms accelerating drug discovery, innovation in this space is thriving and with it comes a growing need for robust intellectual property (IP) protection.
Our team of patent attorneys works closely with companies and innovators at the forefront of digital health. We are experienced in identifying patentable concepts and navigating the unique IP considerations that arise in this fast-evolving sector.
Whether it’s AI and machine learning applications, digital therapeutics, mobile health apps, wearable technologies, or remote care solutions – we’ve advised on them all.
With national healthcare systems like the NHS making a concerted push towards digital transformation, and lots of activity in this space, protecting your IP is more critical than ever. We help organisations, including large multinationals, SMEs and universities, secure their innovations to support long-term commercial success and competitive advantage.
Medical Devices
Ranging from small surgical tools to large-scale imaging devices, medical devices form a cornerstone of modern healthcare. Obtaining patent protection for these devices can help bolster your position in a crowded market as well as protect your innovations.
Our medical device specialists have a broad range of technical backgrounds, including biotechnology and chemistry, but also electronics, physics, material science, and computer science. The team has experience in prosthetics; dental, ophthalmic and orthopaedic materials; tissue culture systems and tissue scaffold materials; slow-release bioabsorbable materials; diagnostic instruments; surgical instruments; and catheters and stents. We also have deep expertise in a wide range of imaging such as MRI technologies and methodologies.
Innovations in medical devices can arise from almost all aspects, such as improvements in the physical device or in the way the data is collected and processed.
