Jewish Ideas to Change the World

Rosh Kehila of The Kehilah in Riverdale, NY, presents her lecture, "Human Cloning and Embryo Research: The Ethical and Jewish Legal Implications" for the Jewish Community Foundation (www.jcfphoenix.org/)

ABOUT THIS LECTURE: Within the last few decades, medical technological developments have changed the landscape for what is possible for medical treatments. The theoretical bioethical and halakhic discussions surrounding human cloning and embryo research are becoming a reality. As a result, further advancements in organ transplantation, infertility and genetic engineering, to name a few, are directly impacted by this possibility within medicine.
