 el Tschink (German Federation for Biological Data | GFBio)Course Overview:
  Do you work with non-human biological material or genetic digital data?
   If so\, you need to understand the basics of the Nagoya Protocol and yo
 ur obligations as a researcher in the European Union.Benefits arising use 
 of genetic resources – whether for commercial or non-commercial purposes
  - must be shared with the countries where these materials come from. This
  is the principle of Access and Benefit-Sharing (ABS)\, governed by the Na
 goya Protocol. But there is more\, ongoing international negotiations on D
 igital Sequence Information (DSI)\, which broadly refers to genetic seque
 nce data and other related digital data (RNA\, proteins)\, are shaping new
  rules for benefit-sharing. Users of this kind of digital data must be awa
 re.But what exactly does this mean for you in practice? In this workshop\
 , we will break down the key legal aspects and practicalities of the Nagoy
 a Protocol and the EU ABS Regulation. We will clarify which regulations ap
 ply\, what are your legal obligation in the EU\, and the consequences of n
 on-compliance. We will also explore practical case studies\, and look at c
 urrent global policy developments on benefit-sharing from DSI. Plus\, you
 ’ll have the opportunity to get your specific legal questions answered b
 y experienced experts.This session is designed to provide hands-on experie
 nce and tailored guidance for your research projects. We look forward to y
 our participation!Please complete the survey available at the following li
 nk: Survey Link. This will help us get an overview of your research projec
 ts and needs in preparation for the event.The data will be processed in ac
 cordance to the Privacy Policy of the German Federation for Biological Dat
 a (GFBio). The detailed version can be found here: https://www.gfbio.org/
