Key GMO Studies
Welcome to our new section on key GMO safety studies. We have carefully selected key studies on the topic of GM food safety and health and analysed them for readers at three levels:

At-a-glance – a more substantial but still brief overview
In-depth analysis – a detailed review of the study for the more scientifically-oriented reader.
