In this episode of BOFIN Buzz, we sit down with Dr. Stacia Stetkiewicz to dive into the world of social science and gene-edited cereals as part of the PROBITY project. In the first of our two-part series, Stacia shares her journey into agricultural science and what motivated her to join the PROBITY project. We discuss the goals of the project, her approach to engaging with farmers and stakeholders, and the methods she plans to use. Stacia also offers insights into the specific farmer perspectives she aims to explore, the challenges of gathering these views, and how she plans to address ethical concerns surrounding gene editing. Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation on the future of precision-bred crops! Make sure to subscribe to receive notification when part 2 is released.
