Ian O’Neill, a shareholder in the firm’s intellectual property department focusing on technology transactions, licensing, advanced media and privacy issues, and Emily Weber, a shareholder in the firm’s health care group focusing on academic medicine and clinical research, data security compliance and governance for personalized medical programs, recorded the second episode of their health tech podcast series.
