- Animals and Bioengineering: A Consideration of Law, Ethics, and Science - part 1
November 9, 2007 - November 10, 2007
A 2 day event held November 9 and 10, the Animals and Bioengineering Conference brings together, for the first time, animal law and patent attorneys, litigators, scientists, ethicists, government regulators and industry representatives to explore the evolution and development of laws relating to the use of animals in bioengineering. This Conference discusses some of the many ways in which animals are currently being used in bioengineering, including producing human medicines in transgenic animals, producing disease resistant farm animals, cloning animals for xenotransplantation and cloning animals for food applications. Both the present state of the law and the possible need for changes in the law are addressed.
