Almost anything can be patented as long as it does not pertain to anything illegal or unsafe to the general public. Natural substances or formulas cannot be patented. Brand names, ideas for products, blueprints and models can all be patented.
The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday agreed to decide whether isolated genes can be patented. The court granted cert in a case challenging patents on genes associated with increased risk of breast and ovarian cancer, report the New York Times, Bloomberg News and SCOTUSblog. At issue is whether isolated genes are “human-made inventions” that can be patented, or “products of nature” that may not be patented, the Times explains.
Myriad Genetics has argued its patents are valid because the isolated molecules at issue were created by humans, do not occur in nature and “have new and significant utilities not found in nature.” The challengers, represented by the American Civil Liberties Union, claim the patents give the company a monopoly on naturally occurring genes and stifle innovation.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
