Our research group documents its results and recommendations pertaining to politics, science and economics in a series of publications which began with the first German Gene Technology Report in 2005. An updated second report has followed since then as well as a number of supplements which depict selected topics in more detail.

Our publications are written in German for the German public. Where available, summaries have been provided below in English. If you require further information, please contact us.
