The Monsanto Papers: Corruption of Science and Grievous Harm to Public Health Seralini Gilles-ric
A specialist in GM foods and pesticides, the biologist Gilles-Eric Seralini has studied their toxicity and effects on people's health for many years. Images from the study of tumor-ridden rats fed with GM foods and Roundup went viral. In September 2012, for the first time in a major scientific journal (Food and Chemical Toxicology), he published a study showing the effect on the liver and kidneys of two of Monsanto's flagship products: Roundup weedkiller and the GM foods created to absorb it.
Monsanto began a series of smear campaigns to discredit Seralini and fellow researchers and intimidate their supporters, while pumping out their own collection of fake research findings and testimonies. The study was a PR disaster for Monsanto.The multinational soon bounced back and did everything in its power to cover up the study--leaning on the publishers to retract the findings.
