Navigate the bioethics and law of human enhancement.
Bioethics and Legal Regulation of Human Enhancement Technologies examines one of the most profound frontiers in bioethics. You learn the technologies at stake โ genetic, pharmacological, cybernetic and cognitive enhancement โ and the deep ethical questions they raise: autonomy, fairness, identity, and the line between therapy and enhancement. The course pairs ethical analysis with the evolving legal and regulatory landscape trying to govern them. You finish able to reason rigorously about the ethics and regulation of human enhancement. A verified e-Certificate of competency and e-Marksheet from the Deep Science & Technology Consortium.
