Excited to get my copy of 'Researching Animal Research' that brings together the important work of @AnimalResNexus on what the humanities & social sciences can contribute to lab animal welfare. Very privileged to be involved in 2 chapters of this impactful book.

Scholars of biotechnology regulation - can you help me? Looking for key papers on the EU Court of Justice decision of 2018 regarding gene editing and GMO, addressing this from a political science perspective.
