Patents and Publications

You can find all my US patents at the USPTO by clicking here.

My patents have been directly cited by several thousand patents to date, so some of them are pretty fundamental. But those citation numbers change as patents age out or are not renewed. You can probably get a better idea about citations by going to Google Scholar.
