Profile

* This Haynes and Boone professional is not licensed to practice law.

Daniel J. Kennedy is a Patent Agent in the Intellectual Property Practice Group at Haynes and Boone’s San Francisco office.

Before moving into patent law, Daniel obtained a Ph.D. in biophysics from the University of California, Berkeley, where he worked on leveraging optical techniques to detect nuclear magnetic resonance signals without the need for large superconducting magnets. He also completed a postdoctoral research appointment at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, where he worked on a variety of projects related to detecting and treating exposure to chemical and biological weapons.
