商品簡介
Author Teng, currently a professor at Singapore's Nanyang Technical University, brings that experience and his background as a microbiologist and research scientist to this thoughtful and readable discussion of the prospects and possibilities of bioscience. The author discusses bioscience applications and business models that have been used in food, feed, and organochemical production. His book also discusses "freedom to operate" issues that have been raised by the controversy over new gene technologies, safety issues, and bioethics. It also addresses communication techniques to respond to those concerns and the benefits of early education programs for companies developing novel products.
