e-TiM: What to Expect in the World of Expecting

Human fertility is rapidly changing, as innovative technologies are leading us to reimagine the road to parenthood. Yet these seismic shifts in how we think about medicine, parenthood, and the onset of life pose pressing ethical questions, along with new halakhic conundra. In this course, we'll explore what guidance the Jewish tradition can offer us, as adherents of the Torah and as conscientious humans, as we explore how we might think about bringing children into the world - personally, communally, and globally. Whether you're a rabbi, an OB, a genetics counselor, or just an individual thinking about what building a family will look like in the next decade, this course will address questions you and those around you may be facing.
