This research strategy outlines ORD's core research effort to provide broader, more fundamental information that will improve understanding of biotechnology issues encountered by EPA's Program and Regional Offices.
Description:
The Biotechnology Research Strategy presents a conceptual framework for future biotechnology research by EPA's Office of Research Development (ORD) over the next 5-10 years. This research strategy outlines ORD's core research effort to provide broader, more fundamental information that will improve understanding of biotechnology issues encountered by EPA's Program and Regional Offices. An important consideration in the development of this strategy was to ensure that EPA biotechnology research supplements and expands on other federal agency efforts.
