This morning we opened the I'm a Scientist, GM Food Zone -
http://gmfood.imascientist.org.uk/ - for public registration.
We've got 5 experts ready to take questions and comments from the
public. They cover a wide range of issues and have both Pro GM and
sceptical views on GM between them.
The experts are:

Anyone can ask them a question or leave a comment on an existing
question.
If anyone on this list is interested in registering please do, and
please do let your networks know about if you think they may be
interested. The test below might be suitable:
GM has been in the news again recently, but there hasn't been much
constructive discussion. The potential implications of using or not
using GM technology will affect everyone on the planet in some way.
The team behind the successful science engagement project, I'm a
Scientist are providing a space for that constructive discussion.
This event is a chance for everyone to ask their questions about GM
to a range of experts who can give a 360' view with their answers.
It's also a chance for many different points of view to sit down
together and listen to each other.
Everyone is welcome to visit the site, find out more about GM and
ask questions or add comments. http://gmfood.imascientist.org.uk
The event is open for registration now and runs until Friday 6th
July.
Many thanks,
Shane
