On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, 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.
