Is it possible to ethically engender posthuman persons?

10 January 2020 - 11 January 2020
Venue: The Senior Common Room, St Mary’s University

The Centre of Bioethics and Emerging Technologies at St Mary's University, Twickenham, celebrates its tenth anniversary in 2020 and it is delighted to host this conference in partnership with the Scottish Council for Human Bioethics. With rapid advances in genomic editing and ongoing anticipation that Artificial Intelligence will equal or surpass human intelligence, there is a real need to consider the ethics of engendering posthuman persons and in particular what responsibilities we might have for and to them.

Delegate place £20 per day including refreshments and lunch.

Students are free of charge (ID required)

Time: 9.30am to 5.15pm on January 10th - 9.30am to 4.30pm on January 11th.
