Commons Science and Technology Committee Inquiry into Bioengineering

25 January 2010
The Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) welcomed the opportunity to present its views in response to the Commons Science and Technology Committee's inquiry into Bioengineering. The inquiry examined how the UK can maintain a globally competitive position in emerging and existing bioengineering research fields, focusing on three areas: research, translation and regulation. The inquiry took synthetic biology, stem cells and genetic modification (GM) as areas within which to explore the issues of research, translation and regulation.
