Professor Richard Gold has a new piece in CIGI online on how we can better adapt innovation after the pandemic. "We are stuck with industries particularly in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors that structure themselves around patents, despite a lack of evidence that patents induce innovation."

Dans la foulée de l'atelier du 30 janvier, le Centre est heureux d'annoncer la publication du Rapport de l'atelier sur les connaissances traditionnelles autochtones, leurs expressions culturelles et la propriété intellectuelle. >> https://www.cippmcgill.ca/s/2390

Félicitations, Daniel!

Professor Richard Gold comments on how Canada must rethink how life-saving drugs & vaccines get to market: "Canada’s Ebola vaccine, ZEBOV, is an example of the problem. Private sector partners slow-walked its development (later pocketing the credit and the profits) while precariously employed public researchers did the work."
