The Stored Tissue Issue, Robert F. Weir; Robert S. Olick






Within the book, there is a section corresponding to actions that have taken place in Oregon to help better the tissue debate. A committee was assigned to come up with a better resolution to the property debate. In most cases property rights are mainly to benefit the researcher. The reasoning is to protect scientific research and experimentation. The book also refers to abandonment of property. The laws pertaining to abandonment of property state that all rights and ownership are relinquished if ownership is given up. The book raises a question as to whether or not tissues should apply. The argument is that in most cases the patient was under the impression that by giving up their tissue for whatever medical reason, the tissue would become medical waste.
