Open Source Biology Initiative

Posted by Hemos on Monday November 22, @11:02AM
from the good-move dept.

Nick dos Remedios writes "The Biological Innovation for Open
Society (BIOS) initiative aims to make biological technology more
readily available to biologists everywhere. The latest genetics
and biology tools should be freely available to researchers over
the internet, but instead access is typically restricted by
commercial patents and prohibitive licensing fees. BIOS and its
associated BioForge aims to overcome these restrictions to
innovation by encouraging companies and public sector research
organizations to contribute their research tools and technologies
to the BioForge repository. In return, users of the technology
are bound by an open source license to share all improvements
with the original inventors and other license holders."
