    After successfully completing his studies of Medicinal Chemistry at the VU Amsterdam, Luc has been working within this professional domain since 2007. After working for several years in the patents department of an international pharmaceutical company and for a Dutch IP firm, he joined AOMB in April 2018. At AOMB Luc works as senior Dutch and European patent attorney.

    Besides his biochemical background, Luc also has experience with companies focusing on mechanical engineering and that makes him an all-round patent attorney.
