Genome Research And Traditional Intellectual Property Protection -- A Bad Fit?, Kate H. Murashige
Genome Research And Traditional Intellectual Property Protection -- A Bad Fit?, Kate H. Murashige
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Dr. Murashige addresses the need for a patent system more closely tailored to the needs of biotechnology. For example, the obviousness requirement may interfere with using patents to recoup high costs of work when it could arguably be done by researchers of ordinary skill.
Impact Of The Human Genome Project At The Interface Between Patent And Fda Laws, Brian C. Cunningham
Impact Of The Human Genome Project At The Interface Between Patent And Fda Laws, Brian C. Cunningham
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Mr. Cunningham stresses the broad scope of biotechnological innovations. Besides endorsing the need for a new oversight commission to deal with potential social issues, he suggests, for example, that some products should be treated like biologics rather than new drugs.
Social Issues Of Genome Innovation And Intellectual Property, Elaine Alma Draper
Social Issues Of Genome Innovation And Intellectual Property, Elaine Alma Draper
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Dr. Draper's focus is the use of personal information derived from genome research. She identifies several potential problems, including access to and control of genetic information, employment discrimination and social stratification. She also recommends possible solutions.
Development Of Vaccines To Meet Public Health Needs: Incentives And Obstacles, Phillip K. Russell
Development Of Vaccines To Meet Public Health Needs: Incentives And Obstacles, Phillip K. Russell
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Dr. Russell explains how such matters as high 'costs of regulation, lack of an effective plan for delivery (particularly abroad) and politics can interfere with providing globally needed vaccines.
Fish Advisories: Useful Or Difficult To Interpret?, Joanna Burger, Michael Gochfeld
Fish Advisories: Useful Or Difficult To Interpret?, Joanna Burger, Michael Gochfeld
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
The authors note that fish and shellfish offer significant exposure to environmental toxins but find that consumer knowledge and other factors may limit efforts to control risk in urban populations.
Why Do We Worry About Trace Poisons?, Allan Mazur
Why Do We Worry About Trace Poisons?, Allan Mazur
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Dr. Mazur relates how protests by the political left against nuclear tests and by the political right against fluoridation set the stage for Silent Spring to move the public toward being concerned about latent risks.
Sources Of Epidemiological Equivocacy, Timothy Sly
Sources Of Epidemiological Equivocacy, Timothy Sly
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Mr. Sly discusses five sources of uncertainty and ambiguity in health and medical research that can interfere with decision making.
