First: Timmis has a 20 year, pioneering reputation in this research area which has recently emerged as a major focus in evolutionary genetics, genomics and GM crop technology. Four years of recent ARC funding has enabled us to remain internationally competitive and significant papers and collaborative reviews in high-impact journals have resulted, to the benefit of Australia's reputation in biolological science. Second: our recent results have caused major debate about containment of GM crops. The knowledge gained from this research will provide essential information to ensure against environmental and human problems associated with transgene escape from GM crops into wild species.

首先：Timmis在这一研究领域拥有20年的开创性声誉，该领域最近成为进化遗传学、基因组学和转基因作物技术的主要焦点。ARC最近四年的资助使我们保持了国际竞争力，重要的论文和在高影响力期刊上的合作审查产生了结果，有利于澳大利亚在生物科学方面的声誉。第二：我们最近的结果引发了关于遏制转基因作物的重大辩论。从这项研究中获得的知识将提供必要的信息，以确保防止转基因作物从转基因作物逃逸到野生物种所带来的环境和人类问题。
