Neue Definition für Grüne Gentechnik wegen CRISPR-Cas, TALEN und Co.?
New definition for green genetic engineering because of CRISPR-Cas, TALEN and Co.? Statements (in German) given at the Symposium on Genetic Engineering at National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina.
What is a "genetically modified plant"? And how should this term - in view of the development of "New Breeding Technologies" such as CRISPR-Cas and TALEN in Germany and in the European Union possibly be redefined and regulated? These questions were the subject of a symposium in Berlin, organized by the National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina, the German Research Foundation and the German Ethics Council.
