Medical Genetic Engineering and Our Children’s Safety

Medical Genetic Engineering and Our Children’s Safety

As a pediatrician and advocate for children's health, I recognize that gene therapies for rare conditions like spinal muscular atrophy or Duchenne muscular dystrophy are often held up as evidence of the promise of genetic engineering. While some of these therapies have shown potential in some rare clinical conditions, they do not justify the uncontrolled expansion of genetic manipulation across medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology. These technologies remain largely experimental, with...

CEO, Dr. Michelle Perro discusses infant formula and heavy metal toxicity.

On January 5, 2024, our website, gmoscience.org went down.  In the past 10 years since its inception, this has never occurred.  What has changed?

A raw nerve was touched.  Perhaps, it is the 1.4-billion-dollar infant formula industry that doesn’t want its products exposed for heavy metals?  Speculation, of course.   This is the first foray by our nonprofit into the research arena.  Possibly, we may have stepped on some toes.

TNT Radio: Dr Michelle Perro on What’s Making Our Children Sick?

Although foods derived from GE crops have gone from non-existent in 1994 to ubiquitous in nearly 3 decades, not a single study has compared humans who eat them to those who don’t. It is clearly in the public interest to enable science-based decisions about foods and food-like ingredients derived from GE crops and animals in our diets. Research on the untoward effects of GE crops on human and animal health, as well as their effects on the environment, should be undertaken.
