Intensive training, both within and outside NLO, means I am increasingly gaining expertise in national and international patent law. As a trainee patent attorney, I aim to combine these two fields of knowledge in order to optimally protect our clients’ innovations.
Before joining NLO, I completed a PhD in microbiology at KU Leuven, with my thesis focusing on the evolution and mechanisms of antibiotic tolerance in pathogenic bacteria. As part of this research I authored and co-authored 7 publications in international scientific journals.
