The contemporary development of science and technology in the field of biomedicine has influenced the development of innovative research tools in modern diagnostics and therapies. Many Asian countries are currently interested in genetic research and biobanks, in response to increasing competitiveness on the global biotechnology market. Establishing of a modern research infrastructure in China, Japan, and South Korea is essential for future research on the etiology of genetic diseases and the development of effective methods of their treatment. Undertaking concerted legislative work is a response to numerous challenges related to the collection, processing, and sharing of biological material and related genetic information. The main problems in the field of genetic research and biobanks are the concept of informed consent, the protection of genetic data, and the commercialization of genetic material. Bio-law in China, Japan, and South Korea is the result of the search for consensus between protecting the fundamental rights of individuals and the freedom of research.
