Video 3, on what gets a scientist out of bed. Iron deficiency affects about 2 billion people worldwide with often devastating health consequences. University of Melbourne researchers are developing a genetically modified rice that is high in iron to help contribute to the ongoing efforts to reduce this problem. It is being coordinated by Harvest Plus http://www.harvestplus.org/
So what motivates these two scientists to get out of bed and pursue this research? How much of a difference can they make, if the rice makes it to the paddock? What other issues need to be considered.
