BIOTECHNOLOGY PATENT PROTECTION
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY JOURNAL "Web of Scholar" - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
The main purpose of patenting biotechnological inventions is to stimulate scientific research. Patent supporters argue that the protection of intellectual property rights has a forward-looking economic and social effect. The most active debate is on patenting of pharmaceuticals. Opponents of patenting of pharmaceuticals point to barriers to access essential medicines, and even incriminate the outrage upon humanity. Stem cell therapy has a great potential but it has not received true clinical success because of significant limitations in clinical applications. The Church's attitude to biotechnological inventions is controversial. Now the issue of the need to assess the attitude towards these inventions and set church restrictions for such scientific activities is being discussed. Another global problem that is meant to be solved by GMOs is malnutrition. Almost half of the deaths of children under five years of age is caused by the lack of food. An important source of law in the research field is the decisions of the Supreme Courts which are meant to resolve disputes in the patenting.
