Description

The growing commercial interest in deep seabed research & the use of the unique genetic resources that this research has discovered raises key policy, ethical & moral questions. For example, who owns these resources, how should they be used & how should the benefits of this research be distributed? The absence of clear rules governing the use of deep seabed genetic resources restricts use of these resources. This study aims to provide a factual review of the scientific, legal & policy aspects related to bioprospecting in seabed areas beyond national jurisdiction. Illustrations.
