Professional Experience: |
My work experience includes several short term internships in different departments of pharmaceutical companies. In the framework of my L.L.M study at the Max Planck Institute, I completed an internship in the PCT (legal) department at WIPO under the able guidance of the Head and Deputy Director, Mr. Matthias Reischle. I also performed relevant Freedom to Operate (FTO) analysis for various biologics under the expertise of Dr. Martin Howell Friede, Public Health and Innovation Department at the World Health Organization in Geneva, Switzerland. I also worked on a project for Medicines Patent Pool in Geneva which involved the updating of the Legal Status of the Anti-Retroviral drugs to facilitate access to HIV drugs in developing countries.
Furthermore, I worked as a Legal Consultant at Medecins Sans Frontieres, an international, independent and medical humanitarian organization that aids the people affected by natural disasters and epidemics. I actively worked on the impact of Intellectual Property Law on the key HIV drugs, Hepatitis C and Tuberculosis drugs. I participated in the Campaign for Access to Essential Medicines and responsible for providing accurate information on relevant patents on medicines. I collected information related to IP Law of quite a few countries specially India and South Africa and their impact on procurement of medicines. I recently completed an IP traineeship at an intergovernmental organization called the South Center in Geneva covering legal policy issues from a development perspective.
