HISTORY
It was the American biologist Rollin Douglas Hotchkiss, in 1965, who introduced the term "genetic engineering", referring to that set of techniqueswith which to transfer into the structure of the cell of a living organism some genetic information not present in it.
WHAT IS
Genetic engineering is a multidisciplinary field of biotechnology that involves the manipulation of an organism's genes to obtain specific characteristics or to introduce new functions. This can include modifying DNA for purposes such as drug production, improved agriculture, production of genetically modified foods, gene therapy to treat hereditary diseases, and many other applications
Aplication
The most recent applications of genetic engineering concern the sector of innovative biotechnologies, in which living organisms are used to obtain useful substances and products, for example, in pharmacology and medicine, in agriculture
