Dr Arpad Pusztai is a scientist who appeared on British television in 1998 to warn the public of his experimental findings on the effects of GM potatoes on laboratory rats. He was subsequently gagged and suspended by his institute, the Rowett Institute in Scotland, his research team was disbanded, and his research data was confiscated. He was subjected to a campaign of vilification and misrepresentation by several pro-GM scientific bodies and pro-GM lobbyists.
