What can you expect from our discussion?
Our team of social scientists is partnering with stem cell scientists to explore the potential impact of creating eggs and sperm in the lab, for all people who would be concerned and for society at large.
Although our discussions will be free-flowing, here are some topics we may touch on:
How can creating eggs/sperm in the lab help people?
How might it impact family-making?
Does it raise concerns?
How should it be researched and regulated?
How can the voices of impacted communities be heard in deliberations over this technology?
Can you help with
transportation?
