So it was this Dr Arpad Puzstai who was studying GM potatoes that had genes inserted to ward off insects? Could it be the type of genes and not the process it's self? He was canned due to his research being biased, and the only people who backed him were people who were already fiercely against GM foods? I think we need more than this one researcher who is accused of padding the research and fired from his job for it.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
