Welcome
We are very proud to announce that following the immense success of our first two conferences in London and Istanbul, "The Third International Conference on Science and Ethics of Assisted Human Reproduction and Stem Cell Research" will be held at the Academy of Sciences in Berlin, Germany, on November 1 – 2, 2007.
In a beautiful atmosphere of the Gendarmenmarkt near "Unter den Linden" and "Brandenburger Tor", we will discuss the medical, moral, legal and social implications of new reproductive technologies and embryonic stem cell research. Among the many topics to be addressed are tissue engineering, therapeutic cloning, emergency contraception, egg donation, egg sharing, preimplantation genetic diagnosis, the welfare of children, conflicts between science and religion, and public policy making in secular societies.
We look forward to "The Third International Conference on Science and Ethics of Assisted Human Reproduction and Stem Cell Research" and we would be delighted to welcome you at the Academy of Sciences in Berlin.
