From food safety efforts and R&D spending to tax changes, legislative activity directly impacts science and technology.
As a company committed to improving the human condition, Life Technologies continues to shape policies that foster safe, effective and beneficial products. We work with state, federal and international legislative and regulatory bodies to advance public policy in areas such as:
- Biomedical research funding and stem cell research
- Intellectual property policies that foster and reward innovation
- Regulatory and reimbursement frameworks that drive the onset of personalized medicine
- Alternative fuel policies
- DNA-based techniques for human identification, crime solving and food safety
We also stay connected to public policy conversations by participating in a number of trade organization and coalitions, such as the Biotechnology Industry Organization, the Personalized Medicine Coalition and United for Medical Research.
