Скачать или смотреть Recycled Parts || Jewish Medical Ethics

Can a religious Jew accept a pig’s organs to save their life? And where does it leave God if we can replace body parts with artificial ones designed by humans? In this session, we were joined by Professor Anthony Warrens, a consultant transplant physician who is both dean for education at Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry as well as a former chair of the London School of Jewish Studies. He discussed new possibilities in organ transplantation – human, animal and artificial – and considered the ethical implications in relationship to halacha (Jewish law).
