Regulating Reproduction, Replication & Research: Governing IVF, Stem Cells, Cloning & Germline Genetics
Professor George Annas, JD, MPH
Boston University
Wednesday, October 10, 2001
11:30am - 1:00pm
Mondale Hall, Room 25
University of Minnesota Law School
Prof. Annas focuses on the novel legal issues raised by rapid advances in reproductive medicine and genetics, including IVF, stem cell research, cloning, and germline genetics. He argues that legislatures have failed to deal with these issues, while judges have met with limited success. He also recommends specific legislative action on the state, federal, and international levels.
