​New Frontiers in Creating Families: Surrogacy, Fertility and Reproductive Technology

Join Columbia College Women and Columbia Engineering Young Alumni Association to explore the rapidly advancing field of fertility and infertility. Women are confronting new research and technologies; old myths; options to donate and freeze eggs; more services for single women and the LGBTQIA+ community; powerful "biological clock", career, and surrogacy decisions; and countless ethical and legal issues. Our moderated panel of experts will present their research and experience. The panel will be followed by Q&A.

We seek to bring together a panel of experts that will be engaging, informative, intellectually stimulating, practical, and emotionally honest. We hope you will join us.
