    GES Colloquium | Fred Gould: AgBioFEWS Potential Paths Forward – Crowdsourcing Input from the GES Community

    January 29, 2019 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
    1911 Building, Room 129 (North Campus) 10 Current Dr., Raleigh, NC, United States

    GES Colloquium, 1/29/19 - Fred Gould | The GES Center is launching our new NSF-funded Research Traineeship, Agricultural Biotechnology and Our Evolving Food, Energy, and Water Systems, or AgBioFEWS. We are in the process of recruiting our first cohort of students and designing details of our courses. We would like to use this colloquium to get feedback from students on faculty on a choices that we will be making.

    GES Colloquium | Jennifer Kuzma – Regulating Gene-Edited Crops

    February 5, 2019 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
    1911 Building, Room 129 (North Campus) 10 Current Dr., Raleigh, NC, United States

    GES Colloquium, 2/5/18 - Jennifer Kuzma | Crop gene editing emerged just over a decade ago as a promising set of biotechnology techniques designed to more quickly and precisely introduce new or altered genes to change plant characteristics for better growth, product quality, processing, nutrition, or sustainability. Scientists in academia and the ag-biotech industry alike are promoting gene editing, through techniques such as CRISPR-Cas9, as the start of a second biotechnology revolution in agriculture.

    GES Colloquium | Jason Delborne: The Potential for Biotechnology to Address Forest Health

    February 19, 2019 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
    1911 Building, Room 129 (North Campus) 10 Current Dr., Raleigh, NC, United States

    GES Colloquium, 2/19/18 - Jason Delborne | In 2018, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine formed a committee of experts to explore the potential for biotechnology to address forest health. The committee focused on threats to forest health from pests and pathogens and considered challenges and opportunities of biotech trees (genetically engineered or gene-edited) as solutions. NASEM released this report in January 2019, and Jason participated in the public release of this report in Washington, DC and a session at the AAAS annual meeting to summarize findings of the report.

    GES Colloquium | Teshanee Williams – Using Cognitive Story Structures to Examine Influence in the Regulatory Review Process

    March 19, 2019 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
    1911 Building, Room 129 (North Campus) 10 Current Dr., Raleigh, NC, United States

    GES Colloquium, 3/19/18 - Teshanee Williams - Using Cognitive Story Structures to Examine Influence in the Regulatory Review Process | Genetically engineered salmon have been approved for human consumption in the United States (US) and Canada, but it has only been released for sale in Canada. In the US, opposition to the approval caused regulatory agencies to update the voluntary labeling guidance, requiring food manufacturers to label foods disclosing information about bioengineered foods and bioengineered food ingredients. Still, some scholars have emphasized the need for risk management to be inclusive of narratives beyond that of the elitist risk assessment and reduction approach.
