Fantastic Research by Max Scott Lab on new world screw worm, Australian sheep blowfly and the spotted wing Drosophila. Making a difference with #GeneticBiocontrol NCSU Entomology & Plant Pathology NC State College of Agriculture and Life Sciences #GoPack

Looking forward to the Gordon Research Conference on #geneticbiocontrol this week City of Ventura.

How can we adapt and #harmonize the different #legal and #regulatory instruments across regions for #gmo and other #biotechnology products to better reflect the requirements for #biosafety for #genetic #biocontrol agents.

Whether it's the differences in diet, health, overall lifestyle or something else entirely, we can definitely say that relatively young people used to look a lot older in previous generations.

Paul Thomas outlines the latest progress on developing #GeneticBiocontrol for mammals at #WAFeralCat23 . A mouse model for now, but the call for a #cat model is deafening! Simulations reveal the resources and time involved.

The question of #monitoring for #trial and/or #GENERAL #Release is complex when applied to #geneticbiocontrol agents. Deciding on #endpoints #protectiongoals and #time for monitoring #adverse #events .
