Aims of the International Society for Biosafety Research

The International Society for Biosafety Research, ISBR, aims to promote scientifically sound
biosafety research by improving communication among scientists who study plants, animals,
and microbes with new characteristics due to altered DNA and produced using modern biotechnology.

By fostering communication and technical exchange among experts, the ISBR supports the science used
in biosafety assessment processes and promotes constructive dialogue on important science-based biosafety issues associated with GMOs.
Specific activities designed to achieve these aims are:
• Organizing an international symposium focused on the biosafety of GMOs.
• Sponsoring scientific publications including original work describing advances in the field of biosafety research.
• Supporting a multidisciplinary approach to ensuring the safety of GMO products through scientifically sound risk assessment that supports regulatory decision-making.
