Creating clarity for better biocontrol
Unique collaboration yields a much-needed common language for genetic biocontrol technology development.
Professor Michael Smanski has adapted a NASA-inspired Technology Readiness Level (TRL) framework to establish a critical shared language for developing and regulating genetic biocontrol technologies against invasive species. This globally recognized roadmap ensures that researchers, regulators, and communities can align on the safety and maturity of innovative biotechnologies before they reach the real world.
