Modern biotechnology, through recombinant DNA (rDNA) technology and genetic engineering, has created new opportunities for developing genetically engineered (GE) arthropods for agricultural, healthcare, and environmental applications. This approval is required for the reporting of restricted release research studies and trials involving GE arthropods. Principal Investigators (PIs) must obtain approval from the Review Committee on Genetic Manipulation (RCGM) before conducting or reporting such studies. The approval is applicable to researchers and organizations engaged in the development, testing, and evaluation of genetically engineered arthropods for agricultural, healthcare, or environmental purposes.
