The center promotes following outreach activities i) training courses of Recombinant DNA experiment / teacher’s license renewal for school teachers, ii) delivery lectures / seminars for citizens, iii) bio-safety training course in overseas, iv) acceptance of visitors etc. This unit supports establishment of cooperative relationship between the local community through publicity of activities.
Network for Breeding
by Genome Editing
“Network for Breeding by Genome Editing” was established in May 2018, mainly by University of Tsukuba (Tsukuba Plant Innovation Research Center (T-PIRC).The Network is a place where cooperate “loosely” not only developers and breeders involved in genome editing breeding, but also agricultural producers, distributors, public relations officials, consumers etc. The purpose of the Society is to contribute toward a better understanding of genome editing breeding in Japan by networking and information exchanging among its stakeholders and dissemination.
