Field Research Methodology
Status
Next Steps
Diagnostic Kits
General Status
- He have created a glossary of research vocabulary that has a allowed us to better define the field.
- We have developed a bibliography with literary reviews of the key articles.
- We have found that genetic diagnostic kits are probably best suited for this study
- We are developing a better understanding of the intellectual property landscape and have established that a wide variety of protections are used including: patent, trade secrets, NDAs, Non-compete, non-solicitation, confidentiality agreements. Economics of IP & IP
- No open business models have emerged in the literature or through interviews.

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 the next phase of research further develop the quadrants already mapped?
- What information should we aim to obtain through new research methods (e.g., interviews)?
- How much should we focus on the largely defunct data production businesses in biotech?
Next Steps
- Continue to investigate universities, non-profits, associations, and businesses relevant to the field
- Deepen our understanding of how production and demand are controlled
- Provide further documentation for the quadrants as we have identified them so far
