Description - Marine Biotechnology in the Twenty-First Century by National Research Council
Dramatic developments in understanding fundamental underpinnings of life have provided exciting opportunities to make marine bioproducts an important part of the global economy. Several marine-based pharmaceuticals in the US are under active commercial development and ecosystem health is high on the public's list of concerns. This title highlights developments and opportunities in environmental and biomedical technology and also identifies factors that are impeding the commercial exploitation of these products. This report includes sessions addressing: drug discovery and development; applications of genomics and proteomics to marine biotechnology; biomaterials; bioengineering; and public policy.
