Science and Technology Policy
The Science & Technology Policy unit provides economic research and leadership on key issues of the evolving policy debate on new agricultural science and technology. The goal is to improve our understanding of the roles of public policy and market institutions in fostering innovation and economic growth, and to help identify appropriate R&D strategies for the public and private sectors. Current research programs include the economic analysis of biotechnology innovations in agriculture, consumer acceptance and regulation of genetically modified products, the analysis of intellectual property rights, the supply of quality in agricultural market with geographical indications, and the role of universities in technology transfer.
The S&TP unit is supported by the Pioneer Endowed Chair in Science and Technology Policy.
