Supreme Court to decide if human genes patentable

Supreme Court to decide if human genes patentable

I’m not impressed with the reasons the interviewees provided, but nonetheless, this could be a major blow to IP should the SCOTUS do the right thing.

I won’t hold my breath.

I wonder what the implications would be if someone’s genetic code has genes patented by someone else?

I thought that someone already patented the human genome…

Interesting, we’re watching the reductio ad absurdum against IP being played out in real life. The scary thing is: what if they don’t find the logical conclusion of IP to be absurd?
