He has worked on and continues to work on IPRs as back-up counsel and has also worked on many offensive and defensive ex-partes and inter partes re-examinations, all the way to appeals at the Federal Circuit. Sanjiv has assisted in briefings to the Federal Circuit during the appeals and has participated in multiple appeals before the PTAB. Sanjiv is actively involved in IP litigation and routinely supports attorneys in ITC-Section 337 investigations, Paragraph IV (Hatch-Waxman/ANDA), and District Court cases.

At the time, Sanjiv worked on developing an artificial intelligence system in respiratory disease diagnostics; as well as, on domestic and international patents, component sourcing, and commercial and academic contracting for developing the underlying technology. Sanjiv led the prototype development efforts based on targeted market segments, which involved the use of a combination of such technologies as neural networks, discriminant analysis, DSP, application-specific semiconductor processing, chip fabrication and memory storage for medical devices, and computer networking for remote access biomedical devices.
