Some people don’t care about them while others don’t trust them: so what are Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs)? - a podcast by AAAS Science & Technology Policy Fellows

AAAS Fellow, Dr. Sesquile Ramon, dives into a discussion of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) and why some people love them, some don’t trust them and some don’t care as long as they taste good. Drs. Daniel Hicks, Ariela Zycherman and Marit Wilkerson, current and former fellows discuss where we get our current policies regulating consumption of genetically engineered food, explore their legislative history, perceived risk and their potential use as a tool to combat the complex challenges of climate change.
