Dutch ecologists plea for scientific research to aid risk assessment
A survey among nine prominent Dutch ecologists has identified gaps in knowledge on the potential effects of Bt-crops on food chains and ecosystems. Bt-crops have been modified to express a bacterial gene that codes for a toxin that kills certain groups of insects. The toxin is continuously produced in all plant tissues and target as well as... view more... (2003-08-28)
Good research, low costs
Dutch researcher Mirjam Moerbeek used a Veni grant to investigate how best to design a study with nested data at a reasonable cost. An examples includes an intervention study aimed at reversing unhealthy lifestyles in young people. The question is how many schools and how many pupils per school should take part. view more (2008-06-05)

New non-viral vector for gene therapy
A research team from the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona has designed and built a recombinant protein (synthesised from artificially linked DNA segments) which is capable of releasing genes in specific cells. The new protein is ten times more efficient than the synthetic genetic vehicles in use until now and avoids the risks associated... view more... (2000-06-26)
