Yes, we can! ⁦Top scientist @PlantEvolution⁩ discusses with top politician ⁦@RenateKuenast⁩ about GMO and precision breeding. Even Germany’s biggest news outlet is present and reports. According to their analysis , the scientist won by a mile. spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mens…

The entire scientific community appears convinced that the recent @EUCourtPress ruling will bring European agricultural innovation in plant breeding to a halt if some form of political action is not taken bit.ly/2D6425Y @V_Andriukaitis @PhilHoganEU #science #trust
Interested by another scientist point of view? Read the opinion of Stefan Jansson on gene editing and the importance of communication. bit.ly/2BP9NoG

The list of countries, which do not regulate targeted mutagenesis by genome editing under GMO legislation grows: Japan 🇯🇵 USA 🇺🇸 Canada 🇨🇦 Argentina 🇦🇷 Brazil 🇧🇷 Chile 🇨🇱 Israel 🇮🇱 Australia 🇦🇺 is likely next. Only the EU🇪🇺 ignores scientific consensus.

Quelle émulation scientifique à @montpellier_ @Montpellier3m cet été : 4 congrès internationaux autour des sciences ! International conference on the physics of semiconductors du 29/07 au 03/08 @ipmb2018 5/08 au 10/08 @Evol2018 18/08 au 22/08 @WrldAquaculture du 26/08 au 29/08.
Le congrès international @Evol2018, rassemblant 2700 personnes de 60 nations différentes, est pour la 1e fois en Europe et c’est à @montpellier3m ! Pas un hasard, simplement la confirmation de l’attractivité de notre territoire @Saurel_P

And #IPMB2018 is over. A truly magnificent and scientifically intense meeting. I spoke to so many people that I have lost my voice this morning. Congratulations to @lacombebenoit1, Claire Corratgé-Faillie, people from ASPB, etc. IPMB2021 will be in Australia!
