Evaluating the Performance of Genetically Engineered Crops
Doug Gurian-Sherman is a senior scientist in the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) Food and Environment Program. UCS is the leading science-based nonprofit working for a healthy environment and a safer world. The goal of the UCS Food and Environment Program is a food system that encourages innovative and environmentally sustainable ways to produce high-quality, safe, and affordable food, whil...
متن کاملGenetically Engineered Mesenchymal Stem Cells Stably Expressing Green Fluorescent Protein
Objective(s) Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are nonhematopoietic stromal cells that are capable of differentiating into and contribute to the regeneration of mesenchymal tissues. Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are ideal targets in cell transplantation and tissue engineering. Enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) has been an important reporter gene for gene therapy. The aim of this stu...
متن کاملIs It Possible for Genetically-engineered (ge) and Non-ge Alfalfa to Coexist?
A key question with regards to the introduction (and later suspension) of Roundup Ready trait in alfalfa is whether this technology would permanently harm those growers who did not wish to adapt this technology. The key concern is the possibility of gene flow that would contaminate GE sensitive crops (primarily organic and export growers) to the point that it would no longer be possible to prod...
متن کامل"Genetically Engineered" Nanoelectronics
The quantum mechanical functionality of nanoelectronic devices such as resonant tunneling diodes (RTDs), quantum well infrared photodetectors (QWIPs), quantum well lasers, and heterostructure fieM effect transistors (HFETs) is enabled by material variations on an atomic scale. The design and optimization of such devices requires a fundamental understanding of electron transport in such dimensio...
متن کاملGenetically Engineered ART Architectures
This chapter focuses on the evolution of ARTMAP architectures, using genetic algorithms, with the objective of improving generalization performance and alleviating the ART category proliferation problem. We refer to the resulting architectures as GFAM, GEAM, and GGAM. We demonstrate through extensive experimentation that evolved ARTMAP architectures exhibit good generalization and are of small ...
