xv, 232 pages ; 26 cm. This is a collection of cutting-edge research and commentary from leading scholars, bioethicists and legal practitioners, covering the broad and ever-changing intersection of law and bioinformatics. The book begins with an overview of the evolving bioinformatics field then explores legal issues surrounding the software tools that enable large-scale computational biology, including procurement and licensing of commercial software systems, in-house and contracted software development and issues surrounding open source software. Legal issues associated with software tools for large-scale computational biology are examined, including procurement and licensing of commercial software systems, in-house and contracted software development, and open source software.
