Andrew Launder is a patent agent and rising 1L at Lewis & Clark with 11 years of experience translating advanced chemistry and computational research into robust intellectual property strategies. A former theoretical chemist and PhD in chemistry, he leverages hands-on coding (C++ contributions to scientific packages) and deep technical expertise to draft and prosecute complex software- and science-focused patent portfolios for U.S. and international jurisdictions. He manages clearance searches, OA responses, appeals, and post-allowance practice while coordinating cross-jurisdictional prosecution and supporting litigation defense. Based in Portland, he combines academic rigor with practical IP counseling, often turning computational research insights into defensible patent claims.
