Prestigious fields of New Zealand biotechnology focus on agribiotechnology and biomedicine research, e.g. large animal and plantbased research, the researches on biosafety, environment protection, neuroscience, cardiovascular diseases, tuberculosis and asthma, diabetes, tumor, and etc. The New Zealand government has attached great importance to the development of biotechnology and bioindustry. The officially announced “The Growth and Innovation Framework” in 2002 listed biotechnology as one of the 3 pillars underpinning the future economy of New Zealand and planned to increase the investment in biotechnology and bioindustry as the important measure for the New Zealand's transformation to hightech economy.
