This report concludes that IP restrictions rarely impose significant burdens on biomedical research, but there are reasons to be apprehensive about their future impact on scientific advances in this area. The report recommends 13 actions that policy-makers, courts, universities, and health and patent officials should take to prevent the increasingly complex web of IP protections from getting in the way of potential breakthroughs in genomic and proteomic research. It endorses the National Institutes of Health guidelines for technology licensing, data sharing, and research material exchanges and says that oversight of compliance should be strengthened. It recommends enactment of a statutory exception from infringement liability for research on a patented invention and raising the bar somewhat to qualify for a patent on upstream research discoveries in biotechnology. With respect to genetic diagnostic tests to detect patient mutations associated with certain diseases, the report urges patent holders to allow others to perform the tests for purposes of verifying the results.GenomicsUnited StatesPatentsProteomicsUnited StatesPatentsIntellectual propertyUnited StatesGenomicsProteomicsIntellectual property572.8Merrill Stephen A1807734Mazza Anne-Marie1805100National Research Council (U.S.).Committee on Intellectual Property Rights in Genomic and Protein Research and Innovation.National Research Council (U.S.).Committee on Science, Technology, and Law.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910968977103321Reaping the benefits of genomic and proteomic research4360369UNINA
