65 Am. U. L. Rev. 1075 (2016)

*Chief Patent Counsel, Unified Patents Inc.  Mr. Stroud was previously with Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett and Dunner LLP, litigating before the courts and the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, and prior to that, he was a patent examiner with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.  He is an adjunct professor (teaching post-grant patent practice), a frequent writer, lecturer, and teacher, and a proud alumni of the American University Washington College of Law.  He owes deep and special thanks to Jarrad Wood, whose dedication, hard work, and maturity have been invaluable; and to Laura Whitworth, for her ability, foresight, and professionalism beyond her years.  They both have boundless potential, and will go far.
