Abstract:
Biotechnologies are one of the most interesting areas of science. Their development, fostered by intellectual property rights'' protection, leads to useful progress. However, when environmental protection is at stake, this progress is not devoid of criticism. The paper aims at examining the interferences between IP and environmental protection, namely the framework of the European Patent Convention.
