Since large, definitive RCTs are extremely expensive ...In epidemiology and biomedicine , the term biological plausibility refers to the proposal of a causal association a relationship between a putative cause and an outcome that is consistent with existing biological and medical knowledge. Biological plausibility is one component of a method of reasoning that can establish a cause and effect relationship between a biological factor and a particular disease or adverse event. It is also an important part of the process of evaluating whether a proposed therapy drug, vaccine, surgical procedure, etc. has a real benefit to a patient. This concept has application to many controversial public affairs debates, such as that over the causes of Vaccine controversy adverse vaccination outcomes . Biological plausibility is an essential element of the intellectual background of epidemiology. The term originated in the seminal work of determining the causality of smoking related disease The Surgeon General s Advisory Committee on Smoking and Health 1964 .

Patent law A biological patent is a patent relating to an invention or discovery in biology . It can be a composition of matter, a method for obtaining or using one or more thereof, or a product combining such things. Even when a natural biological substance itself is patented apart from any associated process or usage , this has been permitted in the United States as long as they are sufficiently isolated from their naturally occurring states. Prominent historical examples of such patents on isolated products of nature include adrenaline, insulin, vitamin B sub 12 sub , and unmodified genes the latter becoming its own notable controversy as of late . History The 1970s marked the first time when scientists patented methods on their biotechnological inventions with recombinant DNA . It wasn t until 1980 that patents for whole scale living organisms were permitted. In Diamond v. Chakrabarty , the U.S. Supreme Court established the patentability of living matter, provided it was truly man made. The subject for this particular case was a genetically engineered bacterium that was specifically modified to help clean up and degrade oil spills. Since that 1980 court case, there has been much patenting of biological matter. Companies and organizations, like the University of California , have patented entire genome s. ref Stix, Gary.

Biological imperatives are the needs of living organisms required to perpetuate their existence to survive. Include the following hierarchy of logical imperatives for a living organism wiktionary survival survival , territory animal territorialism , competition , reproduction , quality of life seeking, and group forming . Living organisms that do not attempt to follow or do not succeed in satisfying these imperatives are described as maladaptive those that do are adaptive . Territorialism Territorialism is a fairly fundamental feature of all living organisms, by simple virtue of the fact we live in a physical universe. Bacteria evidently acquire territory as they spread out in a Petri dish. They have sovereignty by virtue of occupation. Observing living organisms in nature we see that the step before procreation is to establish a territory within which they may hunt, breed, and ensure the growth of their offspring. Territorial sovereignty is land held by the state popular sovereignty is the doctrine that the state is created by and therefore subject to the will of its people, who are the source of all political power the logic follows that territorial sovereignty is held by the people.
