This book was released on 2004-03-02 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years much has happened to justify an examination of biological research in light of national security concerns. The destructive application of biotechnology research includes activities such as spreading common pathogens or transforming them into even more lethal forms. Policymakers and the scientific community at large must put forth a vigorous and immediate response to this challenge. This new book by the National Research Council recommends that the government expand existing regulations and rely on self-governance by scientists rather than adopt intrusive new policies. One key recommendation of the report is that the government should not attempt to regulate scientific publishing but should trust scientists and journals to screen their papers for security risks, a task some journals have already taken up. With biological information and tools widely distributed, regulating only U.S. researchers would have little effect. A new International Forum on Biosecurity should encourage the adoption of similar measures around the world. Seven types of risky studies would require approval by the Institutional Biosafety Committees that already oversee recombinant DNA research at some 400 U.S. institutions. These "experiments of concern" include making an infectious agent more lethal and rendering vaccines powerless.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents recent developments in the field of environmental biotechnology. Three major forces are currently driving this discipline: the exploration of microbial diversity by genetic and genomic tools, the ongoing progress in the modelling of various transient phenomena, and environmental biotechnology. This book provides a state-of-art-overview of developments in the field of environmental biotechnology concerning exploration, implementation, modelling, economic development and safety. It comprises selected, peer-reviewed papers that were presented at the European Symposium on Environmental Biotechnology (ESEB) 2004, held in Oostende, Belgium, April 2004.

Book excerpt: The United States is the world leader in all aspects of the biotechnology industry and biotechnology is quickly becoming a major industrial player in the United States and globally. The biotech arena touches multiple facets of a number of industries: medicine, agriculture, aquaculture, forestry, defense, and others. Biotechnology is still an immature industry that has yet to reach its potential, but will likely have an impact on almost every aspect of the U.S. economy and way of life in the future. With the mapping of the human genome, medical discoveries occur daily -- pure science, new medicines, and genetically enhanced products designed to save lives. Biotech agriculture is a possible solution in the face of increasing global population to food shortages that will not be met by the "Green Revolution" of the past century. Biotechnology holds promise for a cleaner environment through genetically engineered plants and targeted bioremediation. Biotechnology is greatly affected by government investment in basic science, regulation, and product approval processes, which drives a unique business model. While the United States is the world leader, international competitors are gaining ground. Biomedical technologies have the potential to relieve human suffering and solve a range of societal problems. However, some of these technologies are controversial, such as stem cell research and cloning, and raise ethical, moral, and social issues. Potential dual use of biotechnology complicates the effort to craft effective non-proliferation policies and mitigate bio-weapons threats. Biotechnology has the potential to revolutionize all aspects of U.S. daily life over the next two decades, in much the same way information technology did during the previous two decades.

This book was released on 2007-11-10 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a series of regional meetings on university campuses with officials from the national security community and academic research institutions, this report identifies specific actions that should be taken to maintain a thriving scientific research environment in an era of heightened security concerns. Actions include maintaining the open exchange of scientific information, fostering a productive environment for international scholars in the U.S., reexamining federal definitions of sensitive but unclassified research, and reviewing policies on deemed export controls. The federal government should establish a standing entity, preferably a Science and Security Commission, that would review policies regarding the exchange of information and the participation of foreign-born scientists and students in research.
