It was great to be at the #EuroIVG symposium with @FutureofRepro.
Our Council Member Frances Flinter was there to share insights from our previous work on #mitochondrialDNA & how it might help inform current UK policy work on in-vitro gametes (IVG).
nuffieldbioethics.org/public…
To start us off, @lauraaodonovan, @Sfovargue, @Wilkinson2S and @Nickular are introducing the UK-focused IVG policy work they have been doing in collaboration with @Nuffbioethics.
Look out for the Policy Briefing Note which will be published later this year.

Great to see this report published - it serves as an important & valuable contribution to current discussions about how #research involving stem cell-based #embryo models should be governed in the UK.
The report will also inform our work on this topic: bit.ly/NB_project_SCBEM🔗
A new #StemCell-Based #EmbryoModels public dialogue report is published today. In this accompanying article – progress.org.uk/stem-cell-ba… – Sandy Starr (our Deputy Director) and Christina Rozeik (@Cam_Repro's Programme Manager) explain what led to the dialogue, and what happens next.
