THE IMPACT OF DEVELOPMENT OF POPULATION-BASED STUDY IN THE BIOMEDICAL FIELD ON LAWS AND REGULATIONS: A CROSS-STRAIT EXPERIENCE ON BIOBANK DEVELOPMENT

Abstract

Together with the completion of the Human Genome Project, biomedical
research has marched into the “Post-Genomic Era.” In order to take advantage
of this extracted gene related information extensively and precisely so as to
realize man’s biological phenomena as well as the mechanism of pathogenesis,
consequentially, a large scale sample collection of different geological areas
and/or ethnic groups becomes necessary for the future population based genetic
