Food for Thought: A Tale of Apples and Oranges

From Arctic apples to citrus greening-resistant oranges, genetic modification is protecting our produce from blight, pests and possible extinction. Join Dr. Joel Stafstrom, a plant expert in the NIU Department of Biological Sciences, to learn how GMOs are made, regulated, and tested.

This is part of NIU's Stem Cafe Series -- monthly fun, casual gatherings where adults can eat, drink, and chat with STEM professionals about the latest scientific research.
