Law (LAW) - Bioethics and Assisted Reporduction
LAW 8737      Bioethics and Assisted Reporduction
This course will examine the regulation of assisted reproduction, focusing, in particular, on the determination of legal [parenthood. The course will consider the legal determination of the status and disposition of embryos, the possibilities of transfer or donation, use of donor gametes, surrogacy, nuclear transfer, and interjurisdictional conflicts. In addressing these topics, the course will compare Ireland, a relatively conservative country on reproductive issues, with the UK with a mix of liberal and conservative approaches in the United States.
