À propos des auteurs

Ademola A. Adenle has over sixteen years of research and international experience, and was a research fellow and principal investigator at the United Nations University (UNU), Japan, where he coordinated the largest and most comprehensive study in the history of genetically modified (GM) agriculture in Africa, revealing a diverse range of challenges impeding the development of effective biosafety regulatory frameworks across the continent. Further to this research work, he specializes in science and technology policy addressing sustainable development challenges and uses his background in applied science to study social aspects of science and technology in agricultural development, biodiversity conservation, renewable energy, climate change adaptation and mitigation, and health innovation in developing countries.

E. Jane Morris is the former director of the African Centre for Gene Technologies and now an independent bioscience consultant, with over tweny-five years' experience working in the biotechnology field in Africa. As chair of the South African advisory committee on genetic modification before the introduction of the GMO Act, she was instrumental in the introduction of GMO legislation in that country. She has a fellowship at the University of Leeds.

Denis J. Murphy is professor of biotechnology at the University of South Wales and advisor to the Food and Agriculture Organization. He has published numerous books and over three hundred research articles on crop biotechnology and related areas.
