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/

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.
