Like many genetic engineers, I have recently been receiving the
atten tion of various venture capital companies, international drug
houses and Members of Parliament. I will not discuss which of these
approaches are most welcome, but it did cause me to consider the
speed of advance in genetic engineering, and the implications of
this rapid growth. There were few who anticipated it - only five
years ago, most scientists thought applications would come at the
end of the century, yet we see products such as insulin and
interferon already available for clinical testing. In Europe in
general and Britain in particular, this explosive growth in our own
field has coincided with a general industrial depression and a
marked reduction in funding for biomedical research. The brain
drain from Britain is a serious matter, for we are losing the best
of our younger scientists, on whom we would rely to train the next
generation of molecular biologists. These volumes have come from
British labs (mostly because I happen to be based in London, and my
contacts and friends are here), and I feel that the quality of the
con tributions also shows that our current research is of a high
standard.
