Naomi Hawkins's research focuses on the interaction of law and biomedical science, particularly around intellectual property rights. She uses traditional legal research and empirical methods to investigate the impact of human gene patents on the development of translational outcomes of genetics and genomics research.
She is also interested in the ways in which data sharing practices intersect with intellectual property rights in science. Dr Hawkins's research has been funded by the Wellcome Trust and the ESRC, including the ESRC Future Leaders Research scheme project "The Impact of Patents on Translational Research - Non-Invasive Prenatal Diagnosis in Europe and the US".
