Course outline
Recent events including the COVID pandemic have brought pharmaceuticals,
and the intellectual property and liability considerations around them to
the forefront of legal and policy, as well as public debate. Although the
business and innovation practices of the pharmaceutical industry are
largely based on patents, other intellectual property rights including
trademarks and trade secrets are highly relevant too. The industry
benefits from research and innovation taking place elsewhere and
government policy supporting life sciences and biomedicine needs also to
be taken into consideration. At the same time, product liability issues
for both pharmaceuticals and related developments cannot be side-lined
whilst the human rights considerations of involved companies requires
further and better understanding by legal professionals, policy makers and
the public at large. Recent incidents including the cases brought against
Purdue Pharma in the United States over marketing practices start to
highlight some of the above issues but many other considerations received
far less attention but are nonetheless critical.
Building on the combined expertise of two leading institutions in this
area - The British Institute of International and Comparative Law (BIICL)
and the Centre for Commercial law Studies (CCLS) at Queen Mary University
of London (QMUL) - this is a wide-ranging course offering diverse legal
and interdisciplinary perspectives exploring the nexus between global
public health, intellectual property, regulation, liability and human
rights issues.
