Equitable Access to Human Genetic Resources - Balancing Benefit Sharing and Undue Inducement. (360G-Wellcome-093686_Z_10_Z)
The broader research question (How can access to human genetic resources, suchas blood or DNA samples, be governed to achieve justice for developing countries?) requires the completion of the following tasks: Detail the justice issues arising from accessing human biological resources in developing countries (e.g. contribution to research without access to resulting, life-saving products). Map identified justice issues onto relevant justice theories (e.g. cosmopolitanism, human rights framework). The specific research question (How can benefit sharing be achieved without undue influence through inappropriate inducement?) necessitates the completion of the following tasks: Describe existing benefit sharing mechanisms. Explore what types of benefit sharing mechanisms, if any, amount to undue inducement. Examine current proposals for overcoming the problem (e.g. expanding the CBD) The PhD will close a remaining gap in the current research on benefit sharing by producing recommendations for the equitable access to human biological resources in developing countries.
