<br>New publication: Medical research: Science in the public interest<br><br><br>Brochure explains new licensing models for publicly funded drug research<br><br><br>Public funding often plays a key role in R&D of new medicines. But such<br>
innovative drugs are often not affordable for people in poor countries. How<br>can access to these publicly-funded medical innovations be secured for as<br>many people as possible? How can we in particular improve access to medicine<br>
for people in developing countries? One possible solution to this challenge<br>could come with the concept of "Equitable Licensing". Equitable licenses,<br>examples of which have been developed by legal experts and universities in<br>
the USA, are specific licenses for the technology transfer between public<br>institutions and the pharmaceutical industry.<br><br>This brochure presents background information about challenges in the drug<br>supply for poor countries. Numerous case studies show the US experience with<br>
new licensing models and highlight possible approaches for the specific<br>German setting.<br><br>Editor: BUKO Pharma-Kampagne, Institut für Sozialmedizin, Epidemiologie und<br>Gesundheitsökonomie Charité-Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Zentrum für<br>
