The boom in biobanks and health databases as research infrastructures have evoked various legal and ethical debates. Since then numerous new developments have emerged such as digitalization, big-data research, and artificial intelligence that have important implications for biobank-based research and collaborations. This paradigm offers new legal challenges for commercial involvement, particularly within a publicly funded setting. In this innovative book, the author shows that securing maximum social benefit out of the knowledge emanating from the use of biobank resources lies in managing IP inputs and outputs effectively in keeping with the values that are core to such research.
