Propiedad intelectual y salud pública
Patentes, innovación y acceso
Comentaristas académicos, diversos informes oficiales y algunos usuarios del sistema de patentes, incluidos los que participan en la investigación de vacunas y tratamientos para enfermedades «desatendidas», se preguntan hasta qué punto son eficaces o pertinentes los incentivos que ofrece el sistema de patentes, y si acaso no habría que mejorarlos para responder más eficazmente a algunas enfermedades que afectan especialmente a los países en desarrollo. Otro de los temas planteados es el de la influencia de la propiedad intelectual en el acceso a los medicamentos.
