Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore the reason for the "tragedy of anti-commons" in biomedical patent and its effect on the development of biomedical industry.METHODS:The mathematical models of "commons" and "anti-commons" gambling were established based on the analysis on emergence of "patent bush" resulted from the abuse of biomedical patents,and the profit conflict of the patents power related to elementary researcher and applicant researcher was analyzed.RESULTS:The potential "tragedy of anti-commons" affects the enthusiasm of the biomedical researchers,hinders the rapid development of biomedical industry and the improvement of technological level.CONCLUSIONS:The corresponding measures should be taken from aspects such as system,research model,and patent applicant model to balance the possessiveness and exclusiveness,avoid the "tragedy of anti-commons" and facilitate the development of biomedical industry.
