Call of Blood: Metamorphoses of the Legal Regime of Human Biomaterial
29
May
On 29 May, with the support of Pepeliaev Group, the session “Call of Blood: Metamorphoses of the Legal Regime of Human Biomaterial” will take place as part of the St Petersburg Legal Summit.
The rapid development of medical technologies has turned human tissues, organs and cells into a key resource. In relation to biomaterials, de facto contractual and other legal relationships are emerging. However, regulation does not provide a clear answer to the question of what biomaterial is from a legal perspective: can it be sold or bequeathed, and can it be reclaimed from a third party’s possession? Is biomaterial a thing or an intangible benefit, and how do personal data and intellectual property regulations affect the circulation of biomaterials? These and other issues will be discussed during the session. Moderator from Pepeliaev Group:
-
Konstantin Sharlovskiy Partner, Head of Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare Practice
