دانلود کتاب Biobanks: Patents or open science? – Biobanks: پتنت یا علم باز؟

Biobanks represent an invaluable research tool. As a result of their intrinsic and extrinsic nature, they may be looked upon as archives or repositories largely made up of libraries or collections of content where the content is the biological material derived from different individuals or species, and represent valuable tangible assets. Several recent initiatives in biomedical research have attempted to make biobanks data freely available to others, so as to foster innovation. Many of these initiatives have adopted the open source model, which has gained widespread recognition in the computer industry. The author analyzes aspects of the commons and common intellectual property relating to the concepts of private property, not only concerning data but biological materials as well, and the advantages and disadvantages of patents in scientific research. She has structured the book into eight chapters and discusses how the term ‘biobank’ came about in scientific literature, legal matters relating to biobanks, intellectual and physical property, the intellectual property of biobanks within the sphere of copyright, biotechnological inventions and research patentability, open data sharing in biobanks and biobanks as commons or vault.ترجمه ماشینی :
