What's For Dinner?

Boyce Thorne Miller and Jaydee Hanson: Boyce Thorne Miller, a Marine biologist, is science and policy coordinator at the Northwest Atlantic Marine Alliance (NAMA). She discusses AquaBounty's GM salmon, its pending approval by the US Food and Drug Administration, and the FDA's comment period. Doubting if facilities can prevent escapes, she is concerned about the detrimental effects on wild salmon populations. Anticipating low priced GM fish, she also expects the market for locally caught fish to be severely weakened. Boyce has carried out public oversight of scientific review processes for several federal agencies and has consulted for national and international NGOs on coastal environmental issues and biological diversity in marine environments.
