В данной статье анализируется правовое регулирование патентования результатов геномных исследований на международном, региональном и национальном уровнях. Авторы выделяют конкретные направления охраны авторских прав результатов геномных исследований на международном и региональном уровнях (например, в рамках интеграционных организаций), а также актуальные правовые проблемы, которые встречаются в национальном законодательстве. Особое внимание уделяется анализу судебной практики, иллюстрирующей права пациентов (доступ к информации, возможность использования результатов геномных исследований и др.) и права участников, которые проводят геномные исследования. Статья может быть интересна ученым-юристам, практикам и специалистам в области исследования генома человека, биомедицины, биоинформатики, медицины, репродукции человека и др.

This article analyzes the legal regulations concerning the patenting of the results of genomic research at the international, regional and national levels. The authors identify specific areas of copyright protection of the results of genomic research at universal and regional levels (for example, within the framework of integration organizations), as well as topical legal problems which recur in national legislation. The authors pay special attention to the analysis of judicial practice which illustrates patients’ rights (access to the information, the ability to use the results of genomic research, etc.) and the rights of participants carrying out genomic research. The article may be of interest to legal scientists, practitioners and specialists in human genome research (biomedicine, bioinformatics, medicine, human reproduction, etc.).
