In order to consolidate existing strengths and to help shape future research
activities, ACIPA has established a number of research programs.
The current research programs are:
Promoting Plant Innovation in Australia
The past three decades has seen a dramatic increase in patenting activity for plant inventions in Europe and the US. There is also anecdotal evidence that similar trends are occurring in Australia. While the consequences of the proliferation of patents in medical biotechnology have been thoroughly investigated, comparatively little attention has been given to the impacts of patenting in ag-biotech, particularly in Australia. This project aims to rectify this deficiency by examining the extent to which patents are now being used to protect plant innovations. It will also provide policy-makers and stakeholders with a thorough analysis of, and clear recommendations on, the ramifications, both positive and negative, of this trend.
Intellectual Property Education and Training for the Australian Horticulture Industries
To ensure that Australian horticulture industries reap the maximum benefits from intellectual property, a number of potential problems need to be resolved. In particular, there is a need for greater education and training on intellectual property (IP) matters. The speed of change in IP law means that Industry also needs to be kept abreast of imminent changes, as well as being able to seek advice on issues when and as they arise. The project aims to achieve these goals through a range of means, including: the delivery of targeted Grower and Researcher Seminars and specialised IP Master Classes; the production and widespread distribution of Communiqués on key areas of importance to the industry; and IP Management: Education and Training, to ensure that it meets the industry need for increased ability to optimise the value of IP assets from research and development (R&D).
The Potential Impact of Patents on Australian Horticulture Industries
ACIPA has been undertaking research education and training on intellectual property issues pertaining to Australian agriculture for over eight years. During this time, a range of literature reviews have been undertaken by ACIPA staff. As the research programs of ACIPA have developed, a number of issues have emerged or been identified as requiring further investigation. One of the issues that has arisen repeatedly, and seems only likely to increase in the future, relates to the impact of patenting on Horticulture, and the relationship between patent and PBR protection. It has become clear that there is an urgent need for better understanding of the role of patents in protecting plant innovations, how patents impact upon plant breeding and development, and the relationship between patents and plant breeder’s rights more generally. The aim of this project is to undertake research that enables us to answer these questions.
Public Sector Research and Intellectual Property
In recent years, increased attention has been given to the nature and
role that intellectual property law plays in relation to publicly funded
research. This has given rise to questions about the extent to which such
institutions should protect research via intellectual property, and the
impact that this may have upon the research culture. Similarly, questions
have arisen about the best way for institutions to proceed when they wish
to place research in the public domain. For the most part, these discussions
have taken place in a research vacuum. This project will attempt to remedy
this problem.
Biodiscovery and Access to Genetic Resources
This project will consider the interaction between currently recognised
intellectual property rights and the conservation and exploitation of
genetic resources, both in situ and in germplasm collections. This involves
reviewing the international legal mechanisms that have been developed
(notably in the FAO and the CBD), and ongoing negotiations concerning
their development and implementation, as well as policy development undertaken
by other agencies such as WIPO and UNESCO concerning intellectual property
rights, access to genetic resources and traditional knowledge. It will
consider the policy options at a domestic level, and the implications
for resource management, as well as the practical legal tools that are
available to custodians or collections of genetic resources.
International Intellectual Property
This project will concentrate on the legal and policy consequences of
intellectual property rights forming part of the international trade rules
system, through the incorporation of the TRIPS Agreement within the World
Trade Organization package of agreements. It will consider the conception
of intellectual property in the international trading environment, its
role in multilateral and regional agreements on trade and related matters,
the interaction between TRIPS and other international legal instruments,
and the development of TRIPS dispute-settlement jurisprudence.
Access to Scientific Information
This project will examine the impact of intellectual property law upon
the flow and exchange of scientific information. More specifically, it
will consider the impact that patent law, copyright law, contract and
database protection have upon scientific research. The project team will
draw upon history of the scientific publishing as well as recent events
such as the public library of science and digital archives as a way of
ensuring public access to scientific information.
Biological Property
This project takes as its starting point the belief that the history of
intellectual property law can teach us a lot about many of the issues
that confronts contemporary legal system. The project will explore the
impetus for, and the problems encountered when intellectual property law
first began to consider whether protection should be extended to living
matter. The scope of the project will include case studies on the US Plant
Patent Act of 1930, UPOV, and the process by which plants were protected
under Australian law.
Legal Recognition and Protection of Traditional
Knowledge
This program will analyse the policy debate and specific negotiations
concerning the protection of traditional knowledge, both within the existing
national and international framework of intellectual property rights and
in parallel forms. It will assess the implications of these developments
for Australian policymakers and for the Australian legal and policy environment,
and explore the possibilities within the Australian legal system for recognition
and protection of traditional knowledge. The program will review the implications
of strengthened international recognition of traditional knowledge for
Australia's rural industries, in particular, access to plant varieties
and related germplasm, and continuing access to export markets.
