BIOTECHNOLOGY ISSUES
PUBLIC PERCEPTION ISSUES IN BIOTECHNOLOGY
WELCOME
Our goal with this website is to provide information on communication of biotechnology issues and the impact of
biotechnology on society. The material currently displayed covers public perceptions of the scientific, regulatory,
educational, and commercial issues involving the many different aspects of biotechnology, with emphasis on the
environment and agriculture. Please Note: We have not been able to perform regular updates of this website, so for the present please consider these pages as an archive of information on public perception issues of biotechnology from 1995 to 1998. The one new section (below) that is current deals with Environmental Biotechnology. For best results when viewing our pages, be sure the window in your browser
is open as wide as the DNA line picture found immediately below.
