Cuckoo children and dishonest gynecologists
Program in Dutch! In collaboration with NRC, we are organizing a program exploring the moral compass of gynecologists who used their own sperm to conceive babies. What does their decision say about how important we consider the desire to have children? How did we view the role of DNA in the 1980s? What does that say about our current healthcare system, and what role does genetic heritage play in fertility care today?
