Governing Control Over Human Genetic Resources : Promises and Risks
- 2013
-
Ingår i: The European Journal of Risk Regulation. - 1867-299X. ; 4:2, s. 254-260
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The purpose of the paper is to discuss how to regulatethe access to and use of biochemical and humangenetic material currently considered as part of themarket framework. Looking beyond the protection oftraditional public goods (such as land or water), thepaper emphasizes the debate around the progressivecommodification of human genetic resources facilitatedby an improper use of intellectual property rights.The discourse around commons is used to evaluatealternative tools and strategies to the issue of privateappropriation of human genetic resources and naturalcompounds.

La tutela brevettuale del patrimonio genetico tra scienze mediche e diritti della persona
- 2013
-
Ingår i: Rivista di Diritto Pubblico Comparato ed Europeo. - Torino : Giappichelli. - 1720-4313. ; 1, s. 215-233
-
Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The paper seeks to provide a detailed analysis of current patent strategies for companies involved in personalized medicine and the potential consequences for individuals’ rights protection. It thus outlines the legal, ethical and moral issues generated by the indiscriminate issuing of patents on human DNA sequences addressing the potential implications of diagnostic gene patents for access to health care. In particular the manuscript analyses current international court cases on gene and method patents and their significance for the future of personalized medicine, diagnostics methods and access to patented medicine. The paper concludes with a brief analysis of policy considerations for whole genome sequencing and suggestions for a more balanced set of rules that support public interest values.

The Role of Internet Access in Enabling Individual’s Rights and Freedom
- 2012
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of the 5th ICIL 2012 - Equity, Integrity & Beauty in Information Law & Ethics. - Athens : Nomiki Vivliothiki. ; , s. 426-444
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The paper explores the relationship between modern communication technologies and constitutional freedoms. In particular, it takes a closer look at a range of Internet and freedom of expression‐related issues. The aim of the paper is to discuss - in light of recent international case law - how access to network services is increasingly perceived as being worthy of elevation to status of right. In this context the paper tries to clarify if technology could be considered just an enabler of rights or a right itself.

The role of Internet access in enabling individual’s rights and freedoms
- 2013
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The paper discusses the scientific and policy debate as to whether access to the Internet can be considered so fundamental for human interaction as to deserve a special legal protection. In particular, it examines the impact of computer-mediated communication on the realization of individual’s rights and freedoms as well as on democratization processes. It then considers how Internet content governance is posing regulatory issues directly related to the growing importance of an equitable access to digital information. In this regard, the paper looks at conflicts arising within the systems of rights and obligations attached to communication (and especially content provision) over the Internet. The paper finally concludes by identifying emerging tensions and drawing out the implications for the nature and definitions of rights (e.g. of communication and access, but also of intellectual property ownership) and for regulations and actions taken to protect, promote or qualify those rights. All these points are illustrated by a series of recent examples.

Understanding genetic information as a commons : from bioprospecting to personalized medicine
- 2013
-
Ingår i: International Journal of the Commons. - : The International Association for the Study of the Commons. - 1875-0281. ; 7:2, s. 313-338
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The aim of the paper is to discuss how the concept of commons can beenlarged to include genetic resources – both naturally occurring and as essentialresources in research laboratories – that are increasingly considered as part ofmarket frameworks. Looking beyond the enclosure of traditional public goods(such as land or water), the paper emphasizes the debate around the progressivecommodification of genetic resources and associated genetic informationoperated by means of intellectual property rights or other forms of management ofknowledge. The discourse around commons is used to evaluate alternative toolsand strategies to the issue of private appropriation of human genetic resources andnatural compounds.

Non-Conventional Copyright : Do New and Atypical Works Deserve Protection?
- 2018
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- The book draws a picture of possible new spaces for copyright. It expands on whether modern copyright law should be more flexible as to whether new or unconventional forms of expression - including graffiti, tattoos, land art, conceptual art and bio art, engineered DNA, sport movements, jokes, magic tricks, dj-sets, perfume making, typefaces, illegal and immoral works - deserve protection. The contributors offer authoritative, coherent and well-argued essays focusing on whether copyright can subsist in these unconventional subject matters.

Biotech Innovations and Fundamental Rights
- 2012
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- Biotechnology is a recognized research area that has increasingly advanced into new technologies and modern practices raising several legal, ethical and regulatory issues. The revolutionary speed of biotech innovations has had a significant impact on the protection of the rights of the individual. Fundamental rights provide a framework within which the justification of limitations and restrictions to biotechnology innovations and research results have to be assessed. The legal regulation of scientific research and scientific investigations impact more and more directly on the freedom of research and therapies as well as on the broad diffusion of knowledge. Closely related is also the debated question of the technological manipulation of life and the boundary of scientific knowledge with regard to the topical question of genetic invention patents and their side effects on access to scientific information and health care opportunities.Drawing on expertise from different disciplines, the volume comprises invited papers and plenary presentations given at the conference entitled “Biotech Innovations & Fundamental Rights” that took place on Januray 20-21 2011 at the Department of Juridical Sciences of the University of Ferrara. Each contribution covers a different aspect of the legal and scientific issues involved in regulation of biotechnology. In particular the focus of attention has been given to genetic research, genetic data, freedom of scientific research in genetics and biotech patents
