I’m going to be interviewing Anastasia Bodnar, an expert on agriculture who is on the board of Biolmogy Fortified, Inc, “… an independent 501(c)(3) that aims to encourage conversation about agriculture, biotech, food, and related subjects. The interview will be Sunday, March 22, DETAILS HERE<\/a>. She is very interested in the intersection between science and policy when it comes to agriculture.” The Interview will be next Sunday, March 22nd, on Atheist Talk Radio<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Anastasia is an expert on GMOs, and that is mainly what we’ll be talking about. Mike Haubrich interviewed Dr. Bodnar on Atheist Talk Radio a few weeks ago<\/a>, but they did not get through all the interesting stuff they wanted to cover, so this will be like Part II but with me.<\/p>\n

A bit about Anastasia from her web page<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Originally from Florida, Anastasia has a BS in Biology from the University of Maryland and a PhD in Genetics, with a minor in Sustainable Agriculture, from Iowa State. Anastasia researched using biotech and breeding to enhance nutritional traits in corn and investigated potential unintended effects of genetic engineering.<\/p>\n

Prior to completing college, Anastasia served as a Preventive Medicine Specialist in the US Army. In Seoul, she led a team of specialists in public health, occupational health, and environmental inspections. At Ft. Meade, she was program manager for a West Nile virus surveillance program for the north-eastern US. She also served as a Department of Defense certified pest controller, consulting on integrated pest management methods.<\/p>\n

In 2011, Anastasia was selected as a Presidential Management Fellow and worked at the National Institutes of Health. She conducted special projects in science policy, science communication, and legislative affairs. Anastasia currently works for the US Department of Agriculture in the Biotechnology Regulatory Services.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’ve got a pretty good idea what we are going to talk about, but if you have questions do post them below or call in or email during the show!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
