Description

Hosting of visiting scholar at SATSU

Vincenzo Pavone joined SATSU for five weeks in April 2010 from the Institute of Policy and Public Property in Madrid in order to draw on SATSU’s expertise in the social and ethical aspects of biomedicine in his work on pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) and IVF technologies. Whilst working in SATSU, Vincenzo gave an interesting presentation on PGD technology in Spain as part of the Brown Bag Seminar Series , which helped him to refine his research in this area. As Vincenzo’s visit to SATSU was brief (and delayed by volcanic ash), he will be returning to the Unit in the autumn of 2010.
