      abstract = {This book examines patent law and policy in biotechnology  across the full lifecycle of the patent, focusing on the  patent bargain and the public interest. It considers the  central issues of how to strike an effective balance of  rights, and whether public interest is adequately  safeguarded - two issues that are particularly important in  areas of rapidly emerging technology.  Expert contributors  are brought together to explore patent eligibility in  biotechnology, focusing on the fields of precision  medicine, biofabrication and non-invasive prenatal testing.  Chapters also explore the construction and coherence of  exceptions to patentability,an examination of FRAND  licensing in the context of the internet of medical things,  and the possibility of using licensing to encourage or  ensure the ethical use of patented technologies.  With its  carefully constructed analysis, this book will be an  excellent resource for academic researchers, and students,  in the fields of biotechnology law, pharmaceutical law and  intellectual property law. It will also be useful for legal  practitioners and policymakers, as well as charitable  bodies and non-governmental organisations.},
