SUMMARY:The Embryo Frontier: Editing Human Life. The Daniel Callahan Annual Program
DESCRIPTION:Should we use science to edit human life? Gene editing of human embryos could prevent serious genetic disease and improve quality of life in unprecedented ways. But it also raises major ethical concerns. Critics argue it may be unsafe\, would affect future generations who cannot consent\, and may increase social inequity by creating ‘designer babies’ and changing how society views disability and diversity. Join us for a lively debate between Cathy Tie and I. Glenn Cohen\, moderated by Hastings Center President Vardit Ravitsky. \n\n\n\nThis event is the second in the Hastings series “Frontiers in the Ethics of Human Reproduction” \n\n\n\nDebaters: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCathy TieCEO and Founder\, Origin Genomics \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI. Glenn Cohen\, JDFaculty Director\, Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy\, Biotechnology & Bioethics\, Harvard University \n\n\n\nModerated by: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVardit Ravitsky\, PhDPresident & CEO\,The Hastings Center for Bioethics \n\n\n\nHosted by the Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs \n\n\n\nSupport provided by the Jeanette Lappe Memorial Fund.
