Answer the questions:

  1. Commons based cases (the cases that we know will appear in the right part of the quadrants)
    • Identify cases
    • Correlate them with their main outputs (Data. Narratives. Tools)
    • How and in what extent they are “experimenting” or “adopting” commons-based approach. Are they adopting OA policies, for instance? Are they adopting Social Responsible License approaches?
    • Identify these cases and treat them as entities that will also be placed in our mapping device (the quadrants)
    • Identify what actors are participating on this and what actors are just observers (Use the questionnaire to guide your research when appropriate - Carol will select specific relevant and helpful questions)
  • MIT Registry of Standard Biological Parts
    • http://partsregistry.org/Main_Page
    • "A collection of ~3200 genetic parts that can be mixed and matched to build synthetic biology devices and systems. Founded in 2003 at MIT, the Registry is part of the Synthetic Biology community's efforts to make biology easier to engineer."
  • The proposed BioBricks Foundation (BBF) license for BioBrick-standard biological "parts"
    • More information here: http://openwetware.org/wiki/The_BioBricks_Foundation:Legal
    • Drew Endy from the BBF has been increasingly focused on developing the license, organizing legal workshops and spending more time talking about it in lectures, but I couldn't find much online describing progress the BBF has made recently (they have been spending significant time working on it for at least the last 12 months).
    • We could touch base with the BBF to find out of there are any publications in preparation or an expert who could provide more information in an interview by subscribing to and emailing legal@biobricks.org. If that doesn't work, contacting someone from the recent BBF + Berkeley Law Samuelson Clinic would probably be effective.
    • Example set of parts: http://partsregistry.org
    • Janet Hope covers the BBF & CAMBIA in her book, Biobazaar, on pages 316-317: here's a scan (and here's a google book search)
    • http://bbf.openwetware.org/
    • MIT Registry of Standard Biological Parts
      • "A collection of ~3200 genetic parts that can be mixed and matched to build synthetic biology devices and systems. Founded in 2003 at MIT, the Registry is part of the Synthetic Biology community's efforts to make biology easier to engineer."
  • DNA Patent Database
    • http://dnapatents.georgetown.edu/
    • Updated weekly, the DPD contains over 51,000 DNA-based patents issued from 1971 to the present and over 73,000 patent applications published from 2001 to the present.
  • The science commons in health research: structure, function, and value
  • National Center for Biotechnology Information: GeneTests
    • http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/GeneTests/?db=GeneTests
    • "A publicly funded medical genetics information resource developed for physicians, other healthcare providers, and researchers, available at no cost to all interested persons."
    • The site offers:
      • peer-reviewed disease descriptions
      • An international directory of genetic testing laboratories
      • An international directory of genetics and prenatal diagnosis clinics
      • A compilation of educational materials
