Collaboration with the University of Cornell.


We collaborated with the Teams of the University of Cornell, SDU-Denmark and University of Illinois, in the production of a Podcast about some of the ethical, social, and environmental implications of large-scale genetic engineering projects in modern society by creating a series of videos accessible to the general public. Our topic was the Genetic Modified Organisms. We want to thank them for this opportunity. You can watch the video here:
