====Talk Overiew====
This talk will lay out the basic intersections of property rights - copyrights, patents, and contracts - with scientific research.  The talk will also examine how approaches inspired by the Free Software movement might help create a "research commons" of freely usable tools, papers and data.  Specific case studies in biological materials transfer and text mining of gene interaction networks will be presented for discussion.
