Nathaniel Butler, director at the Plant Transformation Core Research Facility and assistant professor in the Department of Agronomy and Horticulture at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, will present “Where to go with GMOs? The Next Generation of Agricultural Biotechnology," at 11 a.m. Sept. 25 at 11 a.m. in Keim Hall 150 or streamed live via Zoom.
It has been over 40 years since the first GMO plant product, the Flavr Savr tomato, was released, and only a handful have come since — so what now?
Butler will outline current approaches to bringing genetically engineered plant products to market, as well as the opportunities and challenges facing the industry.
