Biotechnology - Genomic and Proteomics/Commons based cases in BGP

Answer the questions:

1. Commons based cases (the cases that we know will appear in the right part of the quadrants)
   • Identify cases
   • Correlate them with their main outputs (Data. Narratives. Tools)
   • How and in what extent they are “experimenting” or “adopting” commons-based approach. Are they adopting OA policies, for instance? Are they adopting Social Responsible License approaches?
   • Identify these cases and treat them as entities that will also be placed in our mapping device (the quadrants)
   • Identify what actors are participating on this and what actors are just observers (Use the questionnaire to guide your research when appropriate - Carol will select specific relevant and helpful questions)
