Sruthi Balaji is a research fellow at the TC Beirne School of Law and the ARC Centre of Excellence for Plant Success in Nature and Agriculture, with a focus on intellectual property law and associated legal regimes. She holds a PhD from UQ (2025).
Sruthi’s main research interests focus on the intersections of intellectual property law and the governance of genetic resources. Sruthi is particularly interested in how legal systems conceptualise scientific objects, knowledge and “information” in the context of agriculture, genetics and biotechnology. Having recently completed her PhD she is now exploring how emerging debates expose the limitations of current legal frameworks, in both domestic and international legal systems, and highlight the need for more responsive and tailored approaches to the regulation of genetic resources.
