1982: "Advances in gene-splicing...hold the promise of creating...a whole new industry generating billions of dollars in revenues annually. The boom in biotechnology has not yet materialized." 40 years after first GMO, hindsight is 20/20 @ontariogenomics https://t.co/0QsFIonChR

#Biotech contributes more than 2% of US GDP. Note the huge contribution from industrial products, especially renewable biochemicals, in the mix in addition to biologics (drugs) and crops. #bioeconomy @ontariogenomics @rob_carlson https://t.co/lF9rkSSXXV
