     Are genome-edited micro-organisms


                       covered by Directive


      2009/41/EC?-implications of the


  CJEU's judgment in the case C-528/16


  for the contained use of genome-edited


                           micro-organisms

   t  Hans-Georg Dederer is Full Professor at the University of Passau and holds the Chair of Constitutional
      and Administrative Law, Public International Law, and European and International Economic Law. His
      areas of research include biotechnology and biomedical law. Against that backdrop, he acted since 2010
      as the principal investigator of several interdisciplinary research projects funded by the Federal Ministry of
      Education and Research (BMBF). Those research projects dealt with ethical and legal issues of embryo
      protection, stem cell research, and genome-editing. From 2019 to 2023, he receives a grant from the
      Bavarian State Ministry of Science and the Arts for a research project on the legal and ethical implications
      of brain organoid technology. Hans-Georg Dederer is the co-editor of a commentary on international
      biotechnology law and ofthe book series 'Life Sciences and Law' (LIT Publishing House). In addition, he is
      a member of the Permanent Senate Commission on Genetic Research of the German Research Foundation
      (DFG), and he actively participated twice in ad hoc working groups on genome-editing established by the
      German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina.
   t  David Hamburger is research associate at the Chair of Constitutional and Administrative Law, Public
      International Law, and European and International Economic Law of the University of Passau. His research
      is focused on the regulation of the application of genome-editing in agriculture and medicine. From 2017
      to 2019, he was part of a research project that reconsidered from scratch the European Union's regulatory
      framework for genetically modified organisms in view of the latest biological insights into genome-editing
      techniques. Since 2019, his research shifted to an analysis of the legal framework for research and therapies
      with genome-edited brain cells, which is part of a research project funded by the Bavarian State Ministry of
      Science and the Arts.
