Genetically modified food is the term now most commonly refers to the use of plants intended to be engineered for human and animal consumption using the latest biological technology, “genetic engineering”. It is one of the most important topics between the opposition and supporters, as it was the subject of controversy and discussion about the effects and results of genetic engineering on food.
Since there were lots of questions and inquiries it raised the need and demand for this conference be held for the first time in 2006 to discuss the safety of using such technology, and other claims to establish new systems and procedures to deal with legalizing the safety of genetically modified foods.
due to the success of the previous genetically modified food conferences which were held by the Center at the local and regional levels over the years 2006/2007/2008/2009/2011/2012, the Center decided to hold this important international conference during the period (24-26/9/2024) in Amman – Jordan. A distinguished group of Arab and international experts will participate in this conference to present their latest findings in this issue.
