Abstract
Genetics research and innovation have historically faced many technical, legal, and ethical barriers. Although innovation within medical genetics is challenging to quantify, patent data offers a reasonable proxy, given that available diagnostic and therapeutic options generally have associated patents as protection for intellectual property. Here, we conduct an exploratory analysis of genetics-related patents in the United States granted between 2005 and 2020. By exploring the patent landscape, we aim to elucidate trends in genetic innovation that foreshadow updates to clinical practice.
