| Current Practice
Dr. Lloyd’s current efforts are focused on providing technical consulting in chemistry, pharmaceutics, and drug delivery systems. He also applies his extensive industral experience and registration as a patent agent to assist in patent preparation and prosecution and related litigation.
Background
Dr. Lloyd is a Ph.D. physical chemist with more than twenty years experience in industrial and academic research and development. His specific areas of technical expertise are physical, analytical, and instrumental chemistry; spectroscopy; pharmaceutics; pharmaceutical, transdermal, and ophthalmic formulations; drug delivery systems; biomaterials; and associated processing and manufacturing technology. He also has an interest in applied pharmacology; biosensors; battery technology; and packaging systems.
Before beginning work as a technical consultant and registered patent agent Dr. Lloyd served as Executive Director of Research and Development at IOMED, Inc. (a Salt Lake City based developer and manufacturer of active drug transport systems), Senior Scientist at the Center for Engineering Design, and Director of Research and Development and manager of the formulations, analytical, and materials science group at Dermion, Inc. (a subsidiary of IOMED, Inc.). He has managed multiple inter-disciplinary and inter-company project teams and directly supervised scientists, engineers and other support personnel. He was directly involved in inventing technology and assembling intellectual property portfolios in support of current business and business development efforts.
Dr. Lloyd is an inventor or co-inventor of more than a dozen biomedical related patents. As part of business development efforts he has also served as a technical consultant, prior art and competing art researcher, and evaluator of external patents and intellectual property during licensing negotiations and due diligence evaluations. He has developed, written, and managed medical device design controls and the documentation associated with pharmaceutical GLPs and GMPs. He has written many technical publications and delivered numerous technical presentations on his work. He has further experience in presenting understandable oral and written accounts of these activities to non technical groups including the popular press, investors, and senior corporate management.
Dr. Lloyd has taught at the university and community college level in general chemistry, physical chemistry, organic chemistry, physical biochemistry, and laboratory instrumentation.
