The Intellectual Property-Regulatory Complex: Overcoming Barriers to Innovation in Agricultural Genomics
PUBLISHER | University of British Columbia Press (03/05/2016) |
PRODUCT TYPE | Hardcover (Hardcover) |
Description
Advances in agricultural genomics could help address pressing global issues such as world hunger. However, overlapping and inconsistent intellectual property and biosafety regimes - collectively referred to as the "Intellectual Property-Regulatory Complex" - create significant, and often conflicting, barriers to developing and commercializing new agricultural biotechnology. The authors of this collection explore how this Complex impacts innovation in ways that cannot be appreciated when individual regimes are examined in isolation. They then propose solutions that would meet the objectives of the current intellectual property and biosafety regimes while enabling innovation in the field of agricultural genomics.
