GW Symposia - Reproductive Technology, Access to Media

The George Washington Law Review hosted a symposium on regulating reproductive technologies — Conflicting Interests in Reproductive Autonomy and Their Impact on New Technologies — Nov. 2, 2007.

It hosted Access to the Media — 1967 to 2007 and Beyond: A Symposium Honoring Jerome A. Barron’s Path-Breaking Article.

(In this blog we have generally not posted about events that have already passed. But I thought I’d flag these for those who might want to watch for the eventual symposium issues and for those who just want to be aware of current scholarship.)
