Dr. Kim Stopak is an attorney at Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, where her practice includes patent preparation and prosecution, strategic patent counseling, investor- and company-side due diligence, and technology licensing for clients in the life sciences industries.
Kim has conducted doctoral and postdoctoral research at the University of California, San Francisco, in the areas of biomedical science, immunology, molecular biology, biochemistry, and virology. One focus of her studies was a component of the innate immune system, APOBEC3G, and its regulation by the HIV-1 virus. This work led to the design and implementation of a high-throughput screen for anti-HIV-1 drugs.
After law school, Kim clerked for the Hon. Shane Devine of the U.S. District Court, District of New Hampshire, and worked at Thornton, Early & Naumes in Boston, Massachusetts.
