Paz, Alexandra M. | Zhang, Xiao-Ning
The production of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) is a topic of intense debate across the globe. It is thought that the success of the GMO industry has been impeded by negative information concerning health and environmental risks spread by misguided nonprofit organizations. To assess public opinion on the topic, an 8-question survey with an optional comments section was shared on Facebook and Twitter.

Current research is discussed to address some of the concerns.
