Environmental Contamination, Biotechnology, and the Law: The Impact of Emerging Genomic Information: Summary of a Forum

Board on Life Sciences,Robert Pool, Ph.D.,National Research Council,Division on Earth and Life Studies

On August 16, 2000, the Board on Life Sciences held a forum on Environmental Contamination, Biotechnology, and the Law: The Impact of Emerging Genomic Information. The purpose of the forum was to explore the legal implications of current and developing biotechnology approaches to evaluating potential human health and environmental effects caused by exposure to environmental contaminants and to cleaning up contaminated areas. The forum brought together scientists from academe, government, and industry and members of the legal community, including lawyers and judges, to discuss the interface between the use of those approaches and the legal system.
