Research Methodology in use

  • Case studies
  • Literature review
  • Industry analysis
  • Business reports and press releases
  • University reports and press releases

Problems and Considerations

  • How can we learn more about the use of trade secret protection of data?
  • What information should we aim to obtain through interviews?
  • Should we focus on genetic diagnostic test exclusively?

Next Steps

  • Continue to add information to the research methodology. Specifically, increase information about University contributions.
  • Continue to interview experts in the field
