Decisioni in materia di editing genetico e partecipazione democratica. Un ambito privilegiato per l’applicazione dei principi della democrazia deliberativa?
Get PDFThe frontiers reached by gene editing and their applications for animals, plants and humans raise numerous tricky issues, posing new and renewed challenges for constitutional law scholars. This paper focuses on the role that the public can play in decision-making processes aimed at regulating gene-editing technologies. Thus, it reflects on the opportunity to develop and enhance deliberative arenas, which guarantee a fuller participation of citizens in legislative choices that touch upon controversial scientific issues of general interest, in compliance with the principles of deliberative democracy.The frontiers reached by gene editing and their applications for animals, plants and humans raise numerous tricky issues, posing new and renewed challenges for constitutional law scholars.

Forensic genetics: the evolving challenge of DNA cross-border exchange
Get PDFForensic genetics has significantly reshaped the investigations\u27 methods and simultaneously brought numerous ethical and legal challenges, especially in the area of DNA data exchanges. By retracing the history of DNA cross-border exchanges within the so-called Prüm framework, this paper aims to underline not only the current inhomogeneity of Member States\u27 legislations in this complex field but also the existing inefficiencies in the implementation and application of the "Prüm system". On this basis, potential developments and possible reform solutions are analysed, with the purpose of explaining and reflecting on the opportunities and risks enshrined in the so-called Next Generation Prüm.Forensic genetics has significantly reshaped the investigations\u27 methods and simultaneously brought numerous ethical and legal challenges, especially in the area of DNA data exchanges.

A New Era for Biotech Patents? Empirical and Theoretical Considerations on the current Patent Dilemma
Get PDFDuring the last two decades, the genomics revolution has contributed enormously to the development of novel research approaches in the field of biological sciences. We have seen the development of new biotechnological tools capable of modifying organisms in order to perform specific tasks designing and assembling novel biological components. All these scientific and biotechnological innovations present also a substantial challenge for the law and especially for intellectual property rights. In particular – as a consequence of relevant patent case law in the United States and Europe affecting precision medicine – the debate on the possible future of biotech patents gained increasing momentum. Considering this multifaceted scenario, the purpose of this article is to analyse the impact of various judicial decisions with respect to patents subject-matter eligibility and the prosecution of biotech-related patent applications.During the last two decades, the genomics revolution has contributed enormously to the development of novel research approaches in the field of biological sciences.

La disciplina dei trapianti in Italia alla luce delle sue prospettive di riforma
No full textOrgan transplantation is a life-saving procedure for many patients. However, every year a large number of patients die on the waiting lists due to the shortage of available organs. Thus the organ scarcity problem has been the starting point for reflecting on the effectiveness of the current transplantation system based on willingness to donate and altruism. The analysis of the evolution of the Italian transplantation discipline gives the opportunity to focus on the reform perspectives of the organ procurement system aimed at changing the consent mechanism and the prohibition of organ commercialization. In the recent years, the debate on the scarcity problem has shift from those traditional perspectives to a new one that includes heterogeneous ways to reduce the shortage of organs such as the use of marginal donors, the crossover technique and the reciprocity principle for organ allocation.Organ transplantation is a life-saving procedure for many patients.

Monopolio della verità scientifica, governo della pandemia e cure contro il Coronavirus
No full textThe paper addresses some critical issues emerged during the management of the coronavirus pandemic in Italy. In particular, the health policy on early care and the censorship of the opinions and practices that criticize the official narrative are analyzed. The interpretation proposed is connected to the processes of construction of the monopoly of scientific truth and to the aims it pursues, which possibly come from outside the medical and scientific field.The paper addresses some critical issues emerged during the management of the coronavirus pandemic in Italy.
