This is a follow-up to our 2016 Horizon Scan for Emerging Issues in Bioengineering workshop.
CSER researchers ran a horizon-scanning exercise for 20 Emerging Issues in Biological Engineering drawing on 30 European and US experts. They presented the paper at the 2017 Meeting of States Parties to the BWC, and at the Science Advisory Board of the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons in 2018. The findings and methodology received high praise amongst academics and governance specialists, and have been cited as a valuable means to support policymakers in responding to advances in biotechnology.
