Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book constitutes a fascinating and in-depth analysis of the significance of the requirement of industrial application within gene patenting and how this influences innovation in Europe and the US. The author addresses an area normally overlooked in biotechnology patenting due to the predominance of the ethical debate, and in doing so produces a unique approach to dealing with concerns in this field.
Download or read book Genes and Patents written by Jon F. Merz and published by S. Karger AG (Switzerland). This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This special issue of Community Genetics addresses human gene patenting. Patenting human genes has been controversial since day one, with proponents asserting that patents are necessary to promote investment in the development of therapies and cures, and with opponents arguing that gene patents are immoral and unethical. This publication contains papers written by scientists, lawyers, social scientists and policy analysts, representing a broad-range perspective on the benefits and burdens of gene patenting. While some data have accumulated as the corpus of gene patents has expanded, the papers show that the underlying questions about consequences, both pro and con, remain unanswered. These issues first came to a head more than a dozen years ago when the US National Institutes of Health filed patent applications on thousands of gene fragments called Expressed Sequence Tags, and they have spread to other developed countries. Providing a balanced, international overview of gene patenting practices and experiences, this publication will be of interest to scientists, lawyers, policy analysts and others who are interested in biotechnology, intellectual property, innovation and genetic medicine.
Book Synopsis Gene Patents and Collaborative Licensing Models by : Geertrui van Overwalle

This book was released on 2009-06-11 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cost of patent licenses needed to design a new genetic test or treatment may ultimately prevent research projects getting started, as individual components are protected by different patent owners. This book examines legal measures which might be used to solve the problem of fragmentation of patents in genetics.
Book Synopsis Patented Human Genes: With or Against? by : Philipp Hinderberger
Download or read book Patented Human Genes: With or Against? written by Philipp Hinderberger and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2008-06-19 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject Ethics, grade: B, The George Washington University, 7 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: This paper proposes to ban patents on human genes. The patent system protects the investment of researchers by allowing them to own genes they discover. This, however, results in a lot of ethical problems such as impeding innovations and potential research, disadvantaging low-income consumers, and owning a naturally-existing part rather than a creation. In spite of various objections to those issues, the arguments will be defended with logic and evidence. The paper concludes the arguments with final thoughts about gene patenting and its drawbacks.

Book excerpt: The 2nd Edition of Who Owns You, David Koepsell’s widely acclaimed exploration of the philosophical and legal problems of patenting human genes, is updated to reflect the most recent changes to the cultural and legal climate relating to the practice of gene patenting. Lays bare the theoretical assumptions that underpin the injustice of patents on unmodified genes Makes a unique argument for a commons-by-necessity, explaining how parts of the universe are simply not susceptible to monopoly claims Represents the only work that attempts to first define the nature of the genetic objects involved before any ethical conclusions are reached Provides the most comprehensive accounting of the various lawsuits, legislative changes, and the public debate surrounding AMP v. Myriad, the most significant case regarding gene patents
Book Synopsis Patenting of Human Genes and Living Organisms by : Friedrich Vogel
Download or read book Patenting of Human Genes and Living Organisms written by Friedrich Vogel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biotechnology is one of the most promising fields of technology, especially since molecular biology methods have enhanced our knowledge of genes, their structure, and their action. This knowledge makes it possible to change genetic material and construct new varieties of cultural plants and animals for various purposes such as nutrition, scientific and medical experimentation, and treatment of human diseases. Such inventions may even include human genes. The understandable desire to have legal protection in this domain has created new problems - especially from the viewpoint of the law and acquiring patents for these new inventions. These problems are under wide discussion and are often controversial. This volume provides a unique overview of the current problems and opinions in this controversial field.

Download or read book The Ethics of Patenting DNA written by Nuffield Council on Bioethics and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper questions whether the application of the patent system to DNA sequences achieves its goals of stimulating innovation for the public good and rewarding people for useful new inventions. Even if DNA sequences are considered eligible for patenting, they must also be novel, inventive, and useful. The application of these criteria has not been stringently applied. In future, patents asserting rights over DNA sequences should become the exception rather than the norm.

Book Synopsis Deadly Monopolies by : Harriet A. Washington
Download or read book Deadly Monopolies written by Harriet A. Washington and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the award-winning author of Medical Apartheid, an exposé of the rush to own and exploit the raw materials of life—including yours. Think your body is your own to control and dispose of as you wish? Think again. The United States Patent Office has granted at least 40,000 patents on genes controlling the most basic processes of human life, and more are pending. If you undergo surgery in many hospitals you must sign away ownership rights to your excised tissues, even if they turn out to have medical and fiscal value. Life itself is rapidly becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the medical-industrial complex. Deadly Monopolies is a powerful, disturbing, and deeply researched book that illuminates this “life patent” gold rush and its harmful, and even lethal, consequences for public health. Like the bestselling The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, it reveals in shocking detail just how far the profit motive has encroached in colonizing human life and compromising medical ethics.
