All of us</a>," Marcy Darnovsky and Karuna Jaggar write about Myriad's patents on BRCA1 and BRCA2, the so-called breast cancer genes (which were under review Monday at the U.S. Supreme Court), as if they have served little purpose in the development of tests that have helped more than 1 million women to understand their risks of breast cancer and ovarian cancer.</span></span>

  8. Who should own DNA? All of us

    Most court cases involving patent law are corporate battles, with one company suing another for infringing on its intellectual property rights and, therefore, profits.
