Anti-GM Foods Study Slapped

Critics say the science is flawed and the conduct of the researchers is dodgy

A French study claiming to link genetically modified crops to cancer has come under fire almost the instant it was released.

The study has dropped like a bomb into the "Frankenstein crops" debate. Californians are due to vote in November on Proposition 37 which would mandate GM labeling on all foodstuffs. In Australia, Greenpeace activists last year destroyed a CSIRO experimental crop in Canberra.
