A terrific event at @UTLaw tonight debating the ethics of paid #surrogacy and #gamete donation. Thanks @FrancoiseBaylis for a great discussion and @TrudoLemmens for organizing.
That's a wrap! Thank you for the fascinating talk @HLCJ_1979@TrudoLemmens @FrancoiseBaylis @VidaPanitch@UTLaw. Convincing points on both sides of the debate. We look forward to examining even more intriguing questions on the Assisted Human Reproduction Act tomorrow!
Writes @VidaPanitch: “But if students need books, and patients need PDMPs, what's wrong with a mutually beneficial arrangement? And if payment were truly exploitative, how could we justify buying plasma from paid American donors?”
