This evening there is an interesting event regarding egg donation. See info below:
Join Legal Voice’s Raise Your Voice Committee, UW Law Students for Reproductive Justice, and UW Medical Students for Choice for a brief documentary and panel discussion on the legal, medical, and ethical issues surrounding egg donation. We will be screening “The Good Egg,” which follows a struggling young filmmaker considering egg donation and introduces a variety of perspectives surrounding the practice. Following the film, we will hear from practitioners from the women’s reproductive health and justice communities and engage in a facilitated discussion addressing YOUR questions and others, such as: “What are the potential health effects of egg donation?”, “What legal rights do donors have and how is this practice regulated, if at all, by law?”, and “What psychological effects might women experience as they undergo the process of donation?”. Light refreshments will be served.
Monday, May 7, 2012, 5:30-8 pm; Program begins at 6 pm.
University of Washington School of Law, William H. Gates Hall, Room 133
