Stem Cells to Eggs Cells: Fireside Chat with CEO of Conception, Matt Krisiloff

​Join us at Mox for a fireside chat with Matt Krisiloff, CEO of Conception, about the company's recent milestone: generating early human egg cells from stem cells!

​We'll discuss the engineering of creating the egg cells, as well as the longer-term societal impacts: What happens to the timeline of a life when the biological clock stops being a constraint? Or when one IVF cycle yields thousands of eggs instead of ten, what does choosing an embryo come to mean? How might societies restructure themselves if this technology becomes widespread?

​The conversation will be led by Rachel Wallis of the Berkeley Genomics Project and the Reproductive Frontiers Summit.
