Introduction:

In chapter 3, “Ensuring Biosafety and Security,” Gigi Kwik Gronvall analyzes the trends driving the development of advanced biotechnologies, and notes that biology is becoming more industrialized and economically powerful, as important industries increasingly rely on biological manufacturing processes. She recommends that the United States and South Korea should expand their security cooperation in the areas of global health, gene synthesis, and medical and pharmaceutical research, as well as provide global leadership on safety standards.
