Au lendemain de l’adoption de la sphère de sécurité (ou Safe Harbor Principles) entre l’Union européenne et les États-Unis, il convient de revenir sur les principes mis de l’avant, après une longue période de discussion, pour encadrer le traitement des renseignements personnels entre ces deux systèmes juridiques. Ce rappel permettra de mieux mesurer la portée de ladite sphère de sécurité face aux logiques territoriales de protection des renseignements personnels et à l’absence d’homogénéité de celles-ci.

Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) and other severe non-SCID primary immunodeficiencies (non-SCID PID) can be treated by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation, but when histocompatibility leukocyte antigen-matched donors are lacking, this can be a high-risk procedure. Correcting the patient's own HSCs with gene therapy offers an attractive alternative. Gene therapies currently being used in clinical settings insert a functional copy of the entire gene by means of a viral vector. With this treatment, severe complications may result due to integration within oncogenes. A promising alternative is the use of endonucleases such as ZFNs, TALENs, and CRISPR/Cas9 to introduce a double-stranded break in the DNA and thus induce homology-directed repair. With these genome-editing tools a correct copy can be inserted in a precisely targeted "safe harbor." They can also be used to correct pathogenic mutations in situ and to develop cellular or animal models needed to study the pathogenic effects of specific genetic defects found in immunodeficient patients. This review discusses the advantages and disadvantages of these endonucleases in gene correction and modeling with an emphasis on CRISPR/Cas9, which offers the most promise due to its efficacy and versatility.

Tässä tutkielmassa tarkastellaan sisäpiirin kaupankäyntiä suomalaisten, markkina-arvoltaan pienten, pörssiyritysten omien osakkeiden ostojen ympärillä. Huolimatta aiheen herättämistä mielenkiintoisista kysymyksistä, sisäpiirin kaupankäynnistä omien osakkeiden ympärillä on verraten vähän akateemista tutkimusta. Suomessa aihepiiriä ei ole tiettävästi tutkittu lainkaan. Tätä tutkielmaa innoittivat erityisesti havainnot reaalimaailmasta, jotka antoivat impulssin induktiiviselle lähestymistavalle ja uusien teorioiden kehittämiselle. Kriitikot ovat esittäneet kysymyksen, pitäisikö takaisinostoja toteuttavien yritysten johdon ostaa osakkeita myös omaan lukuunsa. Mutta entä jos sisäpiiri myykin omia omistuksiaan samaan aikaan, kun yhtiö suorittaa omien osakkeiden takaisinostoja? Lainsäädäntö ei aseta rajoitteita tällaiselle toiminnalle. Takaisinostoja on siis mahdollista yrittää käyttää myös opportunistiseen osakekurssin tai likviditeetin nostamiseen, mutta mikäli takaisinostot suoritetaan Euroopan unionin komission asetuksen (N:o 2273/2003) mukaisesti, saavuttaa yritys nykylainsäädännön mukaisen turvasataman (safe harbor) syytteiltä osakekurssin manipulointia vastaan. Tilanteissa, jossa takaisinostoja toteutetaan samanaikaisesti kun sisäpiiri myy omia omistuksiaan, on kiistatta päämiehen ja agentin välinen eturistiriita. Tutkielmassa analysoitiin 992 sisäpiirikauppaa aikavälillä 11.7.2006–31.7.2009. Aineistosta havaittiin kolmen suomalaisen pörssiyrityksen sisäpiirin myyneen omistuksiaan merkittävästi takaisinostojen aikana. Kun analyysi tarkennettiin kaupankäyntipäiville, havaittiin, että sekä sisäpiirimyynnit että takaisinostot voivat olla jopa 100% osakkeen päivävaihdosta. Tämä antaa vahvan signaalin siitä, että sisäpiiri pyrkii hyödyntämään takaisinostojen kasvattamaa likviditeettiä ajoittaessaan henkilökohtaisten osakkeidensa myyntiä.

The development of the Internet has made it possible to transfer data ‘around the globe at the click of a mouse’. Especially fresh business models such as cloud computing, the newest driver to illustrate the speed and breadth of the online environment, allow this data to be processed across national borders on a routine basis. A number of factors cause the Internet to blur the lines between public and private space: Firstly, globalization and the outsourcing of economic actors entrain an ever-growing exchange of personal data. Secondly, the security pressure in the name of the legitimate fight against terrorism opens the access to a significant amount of data for an increasing number of public authorities.And finally,the tools of the digital society accompany everyone at each stage of life by leaving permanent individual and borderless traces in both space and time. Therefore, calls from both the public and private sectors for an international legal framework for privacy and data protection have become louder. Companies such as Google and Facebook have also come under continuous pressure from governments and citizens to reform the use of data. Thus, Google was not alone in calling for the creation of ‘global privacystandards’. Efforts are underway to review established privacy foundation documents. There are similar efforts to look at standards in global approaches to privacy and data protection. The last remarkable steps were the Montreux Declaration, in which the privacycommissioners appealed to the United Nations ‘to prepare a binding legal instrument which clearly sets out in detail the rights to data protection and privacy as enforceable human rights’. This appeal was repeated in 2008 at the 30thinternational conference held in Strasbourg, at the 31stconference 2009 in Madrid and in 2010 at the 32ndconference in Jerusalem. In a globalized world, free data flow has become an everyday need. Thus, the aim of global harmonization should be that it doesn’t make any difference for data users or data subjects whether data processing takes place in one or in several countries. Concern has been expressed that data users might seek to avoid privacy controls by moving their operations to countries which have lower standards in their privacy laws or no such laws at all. To control that risk, some countries have implemented special controls into their domestic law. Again, such controls may interfere with the need for free international data flow. A formula has to be found to make sure that privacy at the international level does not prejudice this principle.

The coordination between territoriality restricted intellectual property rights and the potential global reach of Internet activities has been the focus of significant attention in recent years. The liability of Internet intermediaries offering potentially global services that may facilitate infringements of intellectual property rights by others in multiple countries poses a particular challenge in that regard. At a substantive law level, significant differences remain between jurisdictions regarding secondary liability for intellectual property rights infringements and safe harbor provisions for Internet intermediaries. The present article discusses the conflict of laws aspects of the liability of Internet intermediaries in light of the recent international efforts to adopt soft law provisions on intellectual property and private international law.

Staphylcoccus aureus is a prokaryotic organism capable of causing numerous superficial and severe human infections. Adhesion of S. aureus to host tissues or cells is believed to be a crucial event in S. aureus infections. Subsequently, S. aureus can seed into the bloodstream resulting in metastasis of the infection. Several reports show that S. aureus can be internalized by non-professional phagocytes, a process which has been proposed to be important in S. aureus dissemination. An intracellular residence has also been proposed to provide safe harbor to reservoirs of dormant bacteria contributing to the persistence of infection. This dissertation describes an investigation into the molecular mechanisms of S. aureus internalization into both fibroblast and epithelial cells. Bacterial requirements for internalization were found to be limited to expression of proteins that bind the extracellular matrix protein fibronectin. A previously unknown fibronectin-binding region in the S. aureus fibronectin-binding protein A was discovered after showing competitive inhibition of S. aureus internalization. This novel fibronectin-binding activity is characterized. Internalization also required cell-based factors. The presence of fibronectin and cell surface receptors of the β1 integrin class, which are known to bind and internalize fibronectin, were found to be necessary for optimal internalization of S. aureus. These results led to the conclusion that fibronectin acts as a bridge between the bacterium and integrins on the host cells. The internalization process exhibits features characteristic of integrin-mediated cell migration on fibronectin-coated surfaces. Both processes involved an active form of the β1 integrin subunit and the protein tyrosine kinase Src. Finally, a Src inhibitor previously shown to be effective in reducing osteoporosis in an in vivo rat model is capable of greatly reducing S. aureus internalization. ^

The following document identifies the impact to the current management plan of the Rio Salado Riparian Habitat Restoration Area in the event the endangered Southwestern Willow Flycatcher is found nesting at the project site. Rio Salado is managed by the City of Phoenix Parks and Recreation Department, and consists of a low-flow channel with native vegetation and wildlife along the Salt River. This paper analyzes the regulatory responsibilities of project site management and discusses the necessary adjustments to the management plan. Despite the current absence of the Southwestern Willow Flycatcher from Rio Salado, management should enter into a Safe Harbor Agreement with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to legally protect themselves from the regulations stipulated in the Endangered Species Act.

Today, global economic performance largely depends on digital ecosystems. E-commerce, cloud, social media, sharing economy are the main products of the modern innovative economic systems which are constantly raising new regulatory questions. Meanwhile the United States has an unimpeachable dominance in innovation and new technologies, as well as a large and open domestic market, the EU is only recently discovering the importance of empowering the European digital economy and aims to break down its highly fragmented cross-border online economic environment. As global economy is rapidly becoming digital, Europe’s effort to create and invest in common digital market is understandable. The comprehensive investigations launched by the European Commission into the role of social network, search engine, or sharing economy internet platforms, which are new generation technologies dominated by American firms; or the recent decision of the Court of Justice of the European Union declaring that the Commission’s US Safe Harbor Decision is invalid1 might be considered as part of an anti-American protectionist policy. However, these measures could rather be seen as part of a broader trend to foster European enterprises in technology developments.

Tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää lukijalle, mistä syistä ja miten Euroopan unionin tietosuojainstrumentit – nykyinen tietosuojadirektiivi ja tuleva tietosuoja-asetus – asettavat rajoituksia EU:n kansalaisten henkilötietojen siirroille kolmansiin maihin kaupallisia tarkoituksia varten. Erityisen tarkastelun kohteena on henkilötietojen siirrot EU:n alueelta Yhdysvaltoihin mahdollistanut Safe Harbor-järjestelmä, jonka Euroopan unionin tuomioistuin katsoi pätemättömäksi asiassa C-362/14 Maximillian Schrems v Data Protection Commissioner. Tutkimusaiheen eli henkilötietojen rajat ylittävien siirtojen ollessa kansainvälisen oikeuden ja tietosuojaoikeuden leikkauspisteessä on tutkimuksessa käytetty molempien oikeudenalojen asiantuntijoiden tutkimuksia lähteenä. Kansainvälisen oikeuden peruslähteenä on käytetty Brownlien teosta Principles of Public International Law (6. painos), jota vasten on peilattu tutkimusaihetta tarkemmin käsittelevää kirjallisuutta. Erityisesti on syytä nostaa esille Bygraven tietosuojaoikeutta kansainvälisessä kontekstissa käsittelevä Data Privacy Law: An International Perspective sekä Kunerin nimenomaisesti henkilötietojen kansainvälisiä siirtoja käsittelevä Transborder Data Flows and Data Privacy Law. Uusien teknologioiden myötä nopeasti kehittyvästä tutkimusilmiöstä ja oikeudenalasta johtuen tutkimuksessa on käytetty lähdemateriaaleina runsaasti aihepiiriä käsitteleviä artikkeleita arvostetuista julkaisuista, sekä EU:n tietosuojaviranomaisten ja YK:n raportteja virallislähteinä. Keskeiset tutkimustulokset osoittavat EU:n ja sen jäsenvaltioiden intressit henkilötietojen siirroissa sekä EU:n asettamien henkilötietojen siirtosääntelyiden vaikutukset kolmansiin maihin. Globaalin konsensuksen saavuttamisen koskien henkilötietojen kansainvälisiä siirtosääntelyitä arvioitiin olevan ainakin lähitulevaisuudessa epätodennäköistä. Nykyisten alueellisten sääntelyratkaisujen osalta todettiin Euroopan neuvoston yleissopimuksen No. 108 eniten osoittavan potentiaalia maailmanlaajuiselle implementoinnille. Lopuksi arvioitiin oikeudellisen pluralismin mallin puitteissa tarkoituksenmukaisia keinoja EU:n kansalaisten perusoikeuksina turvattujen yksityisyyden ja henkilötietojen suojan parantamiseksi. Tarkastelu osoittaa EU:n kansalaisten sekä näiden henkilötietoja käsittelevien ja siirtävien yritysten välillä olleen tiedollinen ja voimallinen epätasapaino, joka ilmenee yksilön tiedollisen itseautonomian ja suostumuksen merkityksen heikentymisenä, joskin EU:n vuonna 2018 voimaan astuva tietosuoja-asetus organisaatioiden vastuuta korostamalla pyrkii poistamaan tätä ongelmaa.

Papillomaviruses have been reported to be very difficult to grow in cell culture. Also, there are no descriptions of cell cultures from lesions of bovine cutaneous papillomatosis, with identification of different bovine papilloma virus (BPV) DNA sequences. In the present report, we describe primary cell cultures from samples of cutaneous lesions (warts). We investigated the simultaneous presence of different BPV DNA sequences, comparing the original lesion to different passages of the cell cultures and to peripheral blood. BPV 1, 2 and 4 DNA sequences were found in lesion samples, and respective cell cultures and peripheral blood, supporting our previous hypothesis of the possible activity of these sequences in different samples and now also showing how they can be maintained in different passages of cell cultures.
