A global perspective on the developments in biotech regulations

Posted 28th June 2019 by Jane Williams

The ECJ ruling on GMOs has raised pertinent issues. How will it impact on current and future research? What are the optimum routes to progressing plant research?

In light of the ruling, it was a good time to welcome experts in policy and regulatory affairs to the recent 7^th Plant Genomics & Gene Editing Congress: Europe to explore these issues. We’re lucky to be able to share this presentation from the event for those that weren’t able to make it. Watch it here.

In the presentation, Ana Atanassova, Global Regulatory Policy Manager, BASF Agricultural Solutions discusses:

• Regulatory approaches adopted by governments in different countries to regulation of gene editing
• Regulation that enables innovation
• The need for scientific evidence in support of regulatory policy in the area of gene editing
