Regulating biotechnology
EC Directives on genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have been criticised as too precautionary and placing the European biotechnology industry at a competitive disadvantage.

This POSTnote considers how far the standard-setting process is in step with the gathering pace of biotechnology deregulation.
