Genome editing tools allow direct modification of plant genomes more
<br>quickly, cheaply and accurately than ever before. It is a technological
<br>revolution with long term implications. The tools are changing the
<br>practices of using and exchanging biological material in plant science
<br>including the way plant breeding is conducted.
<br>
<br>The emergence of such a technology raises a series of social,
<br>institutional, legal and policy issues.
<br>Whether you are a biologist or a geneticist, a lawyer or a social
<br>scientist, this school will help you grasp the various societal
<br>dimensions of genome editing:
<br>
<br>- What role for genome editing in research and development in plant science?
<br>
<br>- What regulatory considerations for products derived from these techniques?
<br>
<br>- What implications of gene drive on sustainable agriculture?
<br>
<br>The thematic international school will take place during four days
<br>(total of training = 25 hours), in Montpellier, France, from Monday 13
<br>May at 14:00 to Thursday 16 May 2019 at 17:00. It will be held in English.
<br>
<br>Free of charge.
<br>
<br>Applications expected before 30 of April.
