| dc.description | This volume is intended to provide an unbiased technical guide to those dealing with genetically modified organisms at the research or regulatory level. Reference to existing regulations is meant to bring into perspective the different oversight approaches at the national level and thus help the reader derive his/her own conclusions as to what may be optimal in a given situation.
