CFP: *Genome Editing and the Future of Food in Africa*

Our special issue of @elementascience is seeking additional contributions that examine the complex ecosystems in which genome editing, agriculture, & plant breeding are embedded.

Please share!

Episode 5 of 'A CRISPR Bite' is out now!

Hornless cattle were once the poster animals for a gene-editing revolution, until the FDA found a pesky mistake in their DNA. In this episode, we visit a research farm to explore the unintended consequences.

Episode 4 of 'A CRISPR Bite' is out now!

In this episode, we take you to a lab where researchers are using CRISPR to genetically modify a frightening insect responsible for spreading a bacteria and killing vines and plaguing California’s wine industry

Episode 3 of 'A CRISPR Bite' is out now! In this episode, the team explores how scientists are using CRISPR to pack plants with extra protein, in hopes of cutting down on farm raised meat – a major contributor to GHG emissions

[Nature Reviews Bioengineering @natrevbioeng]

New food technologies, such as genome-edited crops, are often met with scepticism, perhaps also owing to the way these are communicated to the public. @KlaraJFischer and @joevarock suggest changing the current scientific narrative @_SLU @Cambridge_Uni https://t.co/YIwAsJHp4O

Episode 2 of 'A CRISPR Bite' is out now! In this episode, the team heads to Japan to learn more about the first CRISPR food available on the market: The tomato

[Corinne Ruff @corinnesusan]

For the last 2+years, I've been working on a podcast about the newest wave of gene-edited food, told through the lens of a food anthropologist.

I'm thrilled to finally release the trailer! Ep1 drops on Wednesday, so subscribe for updates!

New paper from the GEAP3 team ⬇️⬇️⬇️

[Joeva Rock @joevarock]

New paper!

Genome editing has been described as a "revolutionary" technology for Africa, but how does this narrative compare to empirical realities? We use interviews w/ scientists, experts, & donors to assess the tech's emergence.

Fascinating paper on how actors use Twitter to build coalitions and messages re CRISPR, but not necessarily debates.

Really proud to be co-editing this special issue of @elementascience with @GEAP_3 colleagues.

We’ve got a great group of contributors — from across academia, CGIAR, & beyond — writing from critical, applied, & historical lenses.

Big thanks to @AlastairIles & the Elementa team!
