生物银行运作中的知识产权问题探析

全球范围内,日益增多的生物银行为生命科技研究和转化医学提供研究资源以及合作平台。以生物银行所存储的人类遗传材料和遗传数据进行研究时,由于涉及到人类遗传材料提供者、生物银行、研究资助者和研究者等多方主体,研究成果的知识产权保护范围、权利归属、利益分享等议题变得更加复杂。知识产权法律和政策关于上述议题的立场对于生物银行的建置与运作具有关键意义。生物银行自身亦应从制定知识产权管理规范、在材料转让协议或数据获取协议中对利益分享进行约定、推动人类遗传数据共享、探索"开源专利"模式等方面着手,在实践中探寻适宜的知识产权保护和利益分享机制。

宪法修改的程序性力量与程序机制

宪法修改既可以通过宪法修改程序进行，也可以通过宪法解释、宪法惯例和宪法判例的形式来改变宪法的一些规定或改变宪法条文的原有含义。人民的愿望和态度是导致宪法修改的最根本的程序性力量。各国根据自身政治文化传统、权力分配架构和社会结构状况对宪法修改权和修宪程序作出制度安排，以期充分汇集、表达人民的意志，达到防止不合理的修宪议案被通过和减少将来修改案实施困难的目的。宪法修改程序是宪法规范和社会关系互动的权威机制，必须体现宪法适应社会要求和不断自我完善的内在规律。我国宪法规定的修改程序存在不合理之处，应该采取必要的措施完善修完建议权和提案权的程序规范，增加议决程序的民主性。
