A CRISPR Bite: How gene-editing technology is changing our food | A GEAP3 podcast series produced by Dr. Lauren Crossland-Marr and Corinne Ruff New episodes every Wednesday starting Sept 27! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wel…

I was glad to be interviewed for this article, and to see the work of @GEAP_3 cited as well: "Gentechnik für Arme?/Genetic engineering for the poor?" welt-sichten.org/node/42891 via @weltsichten

CFP: *Genome Editing and the Future of Food in Africa* Our special issue of @elementascience is seeking additional contributions that examine the complex ecosystems in which genome editing, agriculture, & plant breeding are embedded. Please share! docs.google.com/document/d/1RH…

@GEAP_3 @rbeznerkerr @RachelWynberg @elementascience New paper from Kojo Amanor explores the history of agricultural development programs in Ghana and argues for future programs that build on the expertise and priorities of smallholder farmers. Part of a special issue on the future of food. Open-access: online.ucpress.edu/elementa/artic…

@GEAP_3 Just published: @rbeznerkerr & @RachelWynberg combine their work in South Africa and Malawi to map the coloniality of food systems in Africa, and to envision decolonial futures. Available in @elementascience open access: online.ucpress.edu/elementa/artic…

New podcast series 'A CRISPR Bite: How gene-editing technology is changing our food', hosted by Dr. Lauren Crossland-Marr. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-c…

Unmask the enigma of CRISPR, a revolutionary gene-editing technology, with food anthropologist Dr. Lauren Crossland-Marr. Traverse through labs, explore food gene manipulation, and unravel the challenges and stakes in this five-part series. From @GEAP_3. #podcastdelivery

Episode 5 of 'A CRISPR Bite' is out now! Hornless cattle were once the poster animals for a gene-editing revolution, until the FDA found a pesky mistake in their DNA. In this episode, we visit a research farm to explore the unintended consequences. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cat…

Episode 4 of 'A CRISPR Bite' is out now! In this episode, we take you to a lab where researchers are using CRISPR to genetically modify a frightening insect responsible for spreading a bacteria and killing vines and plaguing California’s wine industry podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/win…

Episode 3 of 'A CRISPR Bite' is out now! In this episode, the team explores how scientists are using CRISPR to pack plants with extra protein, in hopes of cutting down on farm raised meat – a major contributor to GHG emissions #CRISPR #geneediting #soy podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/soy…

New food technologies, such as genome-edited crops, are often met with scepticism, perhaps also owing to the way these are communicated to the public. @KlaraJFischer and @joevarock suggest changing the current scientific narrative @_SLU @Cambridge_Uni go.nature.com/46hh4aK

Episode 2 of 'A CRISPR Bite' is out now! In this episode, the team heads to Japan to learn more about the first CRISPR food available on the market: The tomato #CRISPR #geneediting #tomato podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/tom…

Episode 1 of 'A CRISPR Bite' is available now! In this episode, 'The First Bite' we walk you through how CRISPR works, its opportunities and why some people worry that the risks may outweigh the potential benefits. #genomeediting #agriculture #CRISPR a-crispr-bite.simplecast.com/episodes/the-f…

Episode 1 of the GEAP3 Podcast drops tomorrow!

For the last 2+years, I've been working on a podcast about the newest wave of gene-edited food, told through the lens of a food anthropologist. I'm thrilled to finally release the trailer! Ep1 drops on Wednesday, so subscribe for updates! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-c…

Fascinating paper on how actors use Twitter to build coalitions and messages re CRISPR, but not necessarily debates. “Siloed discourses: a year-long study of twitter engagement on the use of CRISPR in food and agriculture” - by @chamomiletea346 et al. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Really proud to be co-editing this special issue of @elementascience with @GEAP_3 colleagues. We’ve got a great group of contributors — from across academia, CGIAR, & beyond — writing from critical, applied, & historical lenses. Big thanks to @AlastairIles & the Elementa team!
