Corporate-Sponsored Research: Are Universities restricting scientists’ study of genetically modified seeds

Corporate-Sponsored Research: Are Universities restricting scientists’ study of genetically modified seeds | YOUR FOOD, YOUR HEALTH: Latest on BiotechFood, GMOs, Pesticides, Chemicals, CAFOs, Industrial Food | Scoop.it

February 5, 2013 - THE CORNUCOPIA INSTITUTE The Chronicle of Higher Education By Goldie Blumenstyk 

In a case before the U.S. Supreme Court this month, advocates for academic researchers are urging the justices to reverse a patent-infringement decision that has given the Monsanto Company broad authority to restrict scientists’ study of genetically modified seeds. The decision, the advocates say, not only hurts farmers and fuels higher food prices; it also contributes to “the suffocation of independent scientific inquiry into transgenic crops.”.. http://www.cornucopia.org/2013/02/in-standing-up-for-big-ag-are-universities-undercutting-their-own-researchers/

pdjmoo's curator insight, February 6, 7:59 PM

This is why it is so difficult to get genuine, independent research on the adversities of genetically engineered food and its impact on the human body.  Remembering that they require lashings of Monsanto's pesticides and chemicals ... also going into the bodies of you and the environment.

Further, by patenting the gene altered seeds they are able to deny permission for research/investigation.   A fixed game that needs to be brought into the light of law.

FOOD ALLERGIES Turn an Unlikely Wall Street Mom into a Food evangelist TED VIDEO 2011

Robyn O'Brien, child-health advocate, shares her personal story and how it inspired her current path as a "Real Food" evangelist. Grounded in a successful Wall Street career that was more interested in food as good business than good-for-you, this mother of four was shaken awake by the dangerous allergic reaction of one of her children to a "typical" breakfast. Her mission to unearth the cause revealed more about the food industry than she could stomach, and impelled her to share her findings with others. Informative and inspiring Robyn O'Brien @unhealthytruth
