Her practice also includes IP diligence for a global investment firm, in which she evaluates and advises on life science patent portfolios, including those held by universities and emerging companies.
Dr. Roberg-Perez has been recognized for her leadership skills and professional accomplishments by multiple publications. In 2022, she received Minnesota Lawyer’s “Diversity and Inclusion Award” and in 2021, she was named a "Woman Worth Watching in Leadership” by Profiles in Diversity Journal.
