  • Abstract
    In silico hyper-modeling is a complex process which requires interdisciplinary effort. Scientists from biology, medicine, bio-informatics, mathematics, engineering and other fields collaborate and contribute their knowledge and expertise. Researchers deserve recognition, intellectual input deserves protection and investments deserve reward. This paper investigates several IP regimes which may apply to cancer models and seeks to find solutions which would guarantee protection and reward.
