A vision for
new and safer sources of food, pharmaceuticals and energy
An increasing number of organisms are
being engineered with the goal of increasing scientific
knowledge, developing better food and safer environmental
products, and producing renewable and/or sustainable sources
of energy. This international scientific symposium,
"Frontiers in Transgenesis" will explore the future of
transgenesis with the goal of charting a course and shared
vision for new and safer sources of food, pharmaceuticals
and energy.
Over the course of the three-day symposium, six
multi-speaker sessions will explore research and advances
related to the following topics:
Studies and Applications in
Development Biology
Innate and Acquired Immunity
Novel Materials in Transgenic Organisms
Transgenic Organisms for Food and Health
Systems Biology Through Transgenic Technologies
New Methods for Transgenesis
Meeting participants will also have the opportunity
to take part in the following Round Table Discussions:
Food versus Renewable Energy
Impact of Biosafety Issues
All attendees are welcome to participate in the
Poster Session!
Registration open until September 7, 2007 ~ Fees include
access to all sessions, lunches, cocktails, coffee breaks,
beer and wine tasting and a DVD containing all
presentations.
