Oocyte Procurement for Research
نویسنده
چکیده
In Part One, I discuss the reasons why oocytes are needed for research at this current time, and describe the potential sources of oocytes for these purposes. In Part Two, I focus on the immediate concerns of sourcing oocytes for research purposes from consenting donors, which are issues of payment, compensation, and incentives. To illustrate the various jurisprudential strategies that have developed in this regard, I look at a number of current legislative frameworks. In Part Three, I discuss in detail three ethical issues that have come to the fore in oocyte procurement debates: payment and compensation, commodification, and autonomy and risk. I close this section – and conclude overall – that various interpretations of the ‘public interest’ are central to understanding this present debate.
