DuPont formed, in February 2000, an independent panel to guide our actions, help us consider and address important issues, and guide and challenge us in the development, testing and commercialization of new products based on biotechnology. The advisory panel audits the Company's progress and provides a public report on a regular basis. Panel members rotate off after a period of time in order to bring in new perspectives. View a list of Panel Alumni who have contributed important perspectives to DuPont.
