An article by Brent Kendall and Jess Bravin:
EXCERPT
"The Supreme Court unanimously ruled Thursday that human genes isolated from the body can't be patented, a victory for doctors and patients who argued that such patents interfere with scientific research and the practice of medicine.
"The court was handing down one of its most significant rulings in the age of molecular medicine, deciding who may own the fundamental building blocks of life."
