I don't think that this is about being for or against ectogenesis. I must say that this could be beneficial for premature babies. Or for another specific case. But should not we start by creating a moratorium or letting people know more about this subject. A subject not discussed enough in our society. Nobody talks about this crazy scientific experience which could dramatically change our lives. A technic that could be used for good or bad purposes. Setting up an ethical policy allowing people to avoid the worst case scenario. Because some people could actually use this technic for unethical reasons: creating perfect human beings. This could be a technic only attainable for rich people. Which could lead us to a society where fat or ugly people would be excluded. We could even imagine a selection of men made for a specific purpose such as going to war.

Hello, I would like to share my concerns regarding artificial womb. Many scientists have been developing this technique of extracorporeal pregnancy. Within a society of control, scientists have been researching a method to eliminate any motherly presence in the unborn baby's environment. From in vitro fertilization to his incubator birth, the baby did not have any human contact. Only the one from needles, tubes and gloves. I am wondering what could be the consequences of this separation between the mother and the foetus on a human being? I am also questioning the possible and unthinkable excesses of this invention : cloning, merchandizing, child's selection according to pre-defined criteria. Should we determine the limits of utilization to advanced prematures and forbid any other utilizations to prevent this technique to fall into the wrong hands. I discovered this blog where a gynecologist analyses this topic. Very interesting. He provides a lot of information regarding the advanced searches on artificial womb. link disabled by Mod I also found out about a facebook page questioning this topic : let's think together about artificial womb. What do you think?
