Public Engagement on Genetically Modified Organisms

Holly Rhodes and Keegan Sawyer, Rapporteurs; Roundtable on Public Interfaces of the Life Sciences; B - Organizational Body;

Rapidly advancing scientific knowledge and its applications from a wide variety of disciplines– genetic engineering, climate science, synthetic biology, stem cell research, and others –are often the subject of multifaceted societal debates. Some of the debates revolve around scientific questions that scientists, as respected authorities, are called on to answer: How fast is the global climate warming? Does the consumption of genetically engineered corn cause allergic reactions? And some of the debates revolve around complex ethical or policy questions to which scientists, as stakeholders and not necessarily authorities, may contribute: Should research involving human embryos be allowed? Should people or institutions be allowed to hold patents on genes?
