Event 31.
Free Thinker: Lisa Jardine - Newfangled Families
- Sunday 25 October
- 4.30pm - 5.30pm
- The Sage Gateshead, Northern Rock Foundation Hall
Professor Lisa Jardine is one of Britain's most prominent public intellectuals. She's a professional historian, regular broadcaster and now Chair of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority - a controversial job for any public figure.
She argues that the science of reproduction will create some of the century's most challenging ethical dilemmas, unleashing profound moral choices and complex emotions. And, as a historian, she reflects on the lessons from the ethical dilemmas of the past.
This event will be broadcast in Radio 3's Night Waves on Thursday 12th November at 9.15pm.
