Abstract

The integration of genetically modified organisms (GMOs), biotechnology, and bioinformatics represents a transformative frontier in science and the public policy. This study highlights the importance of these technologies in addressing global challenges such as food security, environmental sustainability, climate change and health innovation . Despite their potential, there are significant gaps in the legal and regulatory frameworks governing GMOs, particularly with regard to biosafety, ethical considerations, and intellectual property rights. The objective of this research is to analyse the interaction between scientific advancements and legal framework, identify challenges, and propose solutions to overcome these gaps . The methodology involves a comprehensive review of existing literature, case studies, and policy analysis to assess the effectiveness of current regulations. The key findings reveal inconsistencies in international policies, the need for harmonized standards, and the crucial role of bioinformatics in risk assessment and decision-making. The implications of this study extend to policymakers, researchers, and industry stakeholders, highlighting the need for adaptable legal frameworks that balance innovation with safety and ethical considerations.
