Possibility of Painting the Black-Box White: Patentability and Implementation of Implicit Personalised Medicine Deepa Kharb, Ayushi Verma Journal of Intellectual Property Rights, 2025 The birth of Black- box medicine, which relies on complex algorithms and AI to diagnose and treat medical conditions, has sparked significant interest and debate in intellectual property law. As these technologies become integral to modern healthcare, it is important to weigh the upsides and downsides of the technology to protect and regulate them through patents or other IP systems, which is becoming increasingly critical. Algorithms and biological correlations, central to Black- box medicine, face scrutiny under IP protection, especially in patents, due to their potential classification as abstract ideas or laws of nature. The very features that make Black- box medicine innovative and valuable are its reliance on complex algorithms, genetic and biological data, and medical diagnosis and treatment applications. These are the same reasons that render it ineligible for patent protection under the current Indian Patent Regime. Using Black- box medicine also brings significant ethical and social challenges. The lack of transparency in AI systems raises serious concerns about how well we can explain and understand them. This makes it hard to prove they are safe and effective, to interact with them smoothly, and to hold them accountable. Additionally, how different systems work together, how data is shared, and how easily people can access these advanced healthcare solutions must be addressed to avoid widening the Medico-digital divide and to ensure everyone benefits equally from these innovations. Balancing innovation with accessibility, accountability, and fairness willbe essential to fully realising the potential of Black- box medicine.

Negotiating ABS and DSI in the CBD: Challenges and Opportunities for Fair and Equitable Sharing of Benefits Asian Biotechnology and Development Review, 2022
Sharing genetic resources fairly between nations Deepa Kharb Medico Legal Journal, 2022 The global governance of natural resources was established initially by Convention on Biodiversity(CBD) in 1992 followed by Nagoya Protocol(NP) in 2010 with an objective of ensuring fairness and equitable benefit sharing arising from the exploitation of genetic resources creating incentive at the same time for the conservation and sustainable use of such resources. The framework has been criticized for its inefficiency in achieving its objectives. Recently it has been the subject of debate on whether digital sequence information is covered by the term ‘genetic resources’. There are divergent views in different countries on how digital sequencing information (DSI) should be defined and whether the information derived or non-tangible aspect of genetic resources should also fall under the ABS regime. The present paper analyses the Indian position on these points.
