Why is it important?
Scientists are worried about possible restrictions to the use of sequence data and need to get involved and propose alternative solutions.
Perspectives
There are ongoing discussions on international fora, such as the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity, on a topic that is central to many scientific advances. It is important to be aware of these debates and, if possible, provide solutions that minimize the impact on future research.
