Dr. Caleb Jadrich is a registered patent agent focusing his practice on patent drafting and prosecution with an emphasis on chemistry and small molecule therapeutics.
Caleb was a graduate student under Robert M. Waymouth at Stanford University, where he collaborated with an IBM research team to develop catalysts and reactors for living ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of cyclic esters and carbonates. In his research, Caleb utilized continuous flow reactors to control ultrafast polymerizations by strong, hindered bases, resulting in an issued patent (U.S. Patent No. 11,279,798). He also synthesized and characterized degradable, photopolymerizable polyester resins for additive manufacturing (3D printing) of closed lifecycle products.
As an undergraduate at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Caleb developed a thermodynamic scale of hydride-donating ability among a family of iridium bipyridine complexes under Alexander J. M. Miller.
