Full Description
Pastor Fritz Jahr used the term "bioethics" as early as 1927. It was not until the early 1970s that the term was rediscovered in the United States. Since then, the relevance of this emergent academic field of studies has permanently been growing, as the age of biotechnological and medical innovations has only just begun. Enormous progress can be expected in various areas relevant to bioethical discourses in the coming decades and centuries. In the past years, the invention of CRISPR/Cas9 has radically changed the possibilities concerning genetic modifications, even germline modifications have turned into a practical option. These developments need to be investigated by academics from various disciplines, which is the reason why the conference series on "Bioethics in the New Age of Science" was initialized. The present volume consists in selected papers from the first International Conference on Bioethics in the New Age of Science, which took place in May 2017.
