SCIENCE 4 BIOREG - Global involvement of public research scientists in regulations of Bio-safety and Agricultural Biotechnology
Project
Project code: 43012
Contract period: 01.11.2006
- 31.10.2009
Budget: 601,488 Euro
Purpose of research: Applied research
The project proposal addresses the growing gap between public sector life sciences in agricultural biotechnology on the one hand and regulatory policies and public perceptions on the other. Public research in modern biotechnology aims at solving problems in food and feed production, health care and environmental protection, in particular in developing countries. Developments in the public research sector in modern biotechnology are closely dependent on the design and implementation of the regulatory framework for genetically modified crops at the national, regional and global level. Modern biotechnology can contribute to solving these problems only if the regulatory frameworks are science based, predictable, transparent and balanced.
