It started with the creation of the first recombinant bacteria in 1973, E .coli expressing a salmonella gene. This led to concerns in the scientific community about potential risks from genetic engineering which have been thoroughly discussed at the Asilomar Conference in Pacific Grove, California in February 1975. Herbert Boyer then founded the first company to use recombinant DNA technology, Genentech, and in 1978 the company announced the creation of an E. coli strain producing the human protein insulin. In 1986, field tests of bacteria genetically engineered to protect plants from frost damage (ice-minus bacteria) at a small biotechnology company called Advanced Genetic Sciences of Oakland, California, were repeatedly delayed by opponents of biotechnology. In the same year, a proposed field test of a microbe genetically engineered for a pest resistance protein by Monsanto was dropped.

Lovely Professional University (LPU) offers a comprehensive Biotechnology program with four branches: Medical Biotechnology Focuses on the application of biotechnology in medical sciences, including gene therapy, vaccine development, and regenerative medicine. Students learn about the latest techniques and technologies used in medical biotechnology. Agricultural Biotechnology Emphasizes the use of biotechnology in agriculture, including genetic engineering, plant breeding, and livestock improvement. Students explore the applications of biotechnology in crop improvement, animal health, and agricultural sustainability. Industrial Biotechnology Concentrates on the industrial applications of biotechnology, including bioproducts, biocatalysis, and bioremediation. Students learn about the development and production of bio-based products, such as biofuels, bioplastics, and enzymes. Environmental Biotechnology Focuses on the application of biotechnology to address environmental issues, including biodegradation, bioremediation, and conservation biology. Students examine the role of biotechnology in environmental sustainability, pollution control, and ecosystem conservation. These four branches of biotechnology at LPU provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the field and its applications in various industries.
