OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The talk focuses on ethical and legal aspects of the use of polygenic scores in genetic selection. I will outline the possibility of using polygenic scores to select embryos which are healthier and have greater potential for enjoying well-being and behaving morally. I will outline some new data on public acceptability and propose a model for law reform: the harm-based model for regulating genetic selection.
