How do we prepare for, and respond to, a world where biocontrol agents are not only discovered in nature, but increasingly designed, while navigating a regulatory system that is still evolving?

How do we demonstrate the safety of biocontrol agents in ways that reflect their biological nature and behaviour, using evidence that is truly relevant to how they act?

How do we frame biocontrol agents clearly enough to fit within today’s regulatory framework, yet flexibly enough to ensure they’re assessed on their own biological terms, not by chemical-era rules?
