Dr. Pagano handles all manner of intellectual property related issues, including patent prosecution, non-infringement and invalidity opinions, and technology-transfer and license agreements. His practice has focused on pharmaceuticals, medicinal chemistry, target-driven drug discovery, formulation development, fine and specialty chemicals, health care products, cosmetics, "nutraceuticals" (dietary and nutritional supplements), and many other life science disciplines.
After earning his Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry in 1994, from The Pennsylvania State University, Dr. Pagano completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Rutgers, New Jersey. During his university training, he performed research and authored scientific papers published in The Journal of Organic Chemistry and The Journal of the American Chemical Society.
