INTERNATIONAL DOCUMENTS AND SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATIONS ON PLANT BIOTECHNOLOGY AND THE SAFETY ASSESSMENT OF FOOD PRODUCTS DERIVED FROM PLANT BIOTECHNOLOGY ILSI International Food Biotechnology Committee One Thomas Circle, NW, 9th Floor Washington, D.C. 20005 U.S.A. September 2004 List of International Documents and Scientific Publications on Plant Biotechnology Compiled by the ILSI InternationalFood Biotechnology Committee About ILSI The International Life Sciences Institute (ILSI) is a nonprofit, worldwide foundation established in 1978 to advance the understanding of scientific issues relating to nutrition, food safety, toxicology, risk assessment, and the environment. ILSI also works to provide the science base for global harmonization in these areas. By bringing together scientists from academia, government, industry, and the public sector, ILSI seeks a balanced approach to solving problems of common concern for the well-being of the general public. ILSI is headquartered in Washington, D.C. ILSI branches include Argentina, Brasil, Europe, India, Japan, Korea, Mexico, North Africa and Gulf Region, North America, North Andean, South Africa, South Andean, Southeast Asia Region, the Focal Point in China, and the ILSI Health and Environmental Sciences Institute. ILSI also accomplishes its work through the ILSI Research Foundation (composed of the ILSI Human Nutrition Institute and the ILSI Risk Science Institute) and the ILSI Center for Health Promotion. ILSI receives financial support from industry, government, and foundations. 1 List of International Documents and Scientific Publications on Plant Biotechnology Compiled by the ILSI International Food
