30-Day Notice

Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 166 / Tuesday, August 28, 2007 / Notices
drugs, therapeutics, and diagnostics.
The intent is to discourage the use of
patents to prevent the use of or block
access to any genotype-phenotype data
developed with NIH support. The NIH
encourages broad use of NIH-supported
genotype-phenotype data that is
consistent with a responsible approach
to management of intellectual property
derived from downstream discoveries,
as outlined in the NIH’s Best Practices
for the Licensing of Genomic Inventions
(http://www.ott.nih.gov/policy/
genomic_invention.html) and its
Research Tools Policy (http://
ott.od.nih.gov/policy/
research_tool.html).
The filing of patent applications and/
or the enforcement of resultant patents
in a manner that might restrict use of
NIH-supported genotype-phenotype
data could diminish the potential public
benefit they could provide. Approved
users and their institutions, through the
execution of an NIH Data Use
Certification, will acknowledge the goal
of ensuring the greatest possible public
benefit from NIH-supported GWAS.
