Patent Engineer


Yuya Takaba obtained his master’s degree in genetics from the University of Adelaide, Australia. He subsequently earned a PhD in molecular life sciences from the University of Zurich in Switzerland. Following his doctoral studies, Dr. Takaba worked as a research fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School in the US. He later served as an assistant professor at the University of Yamanashi and Fukushima Medical College in Japan, before returning to the University of Zurich as a research fellow. After working at a academic publication support company, Dr Takaba joined our office.
