You can follow the link to a short video on the Ethics of Genome Editing that the Bioethics and Ethics of Science Section has recently produced.

It is the first of the series of educational and informative videos on the Ethics of Genome Editing.

The video production was financially supported by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan and the video pharmacy online is available with subtitles in English, French and Japanese.  
The video is aimed to promote ethical reflection on Genome Editing research and its application and it could be used for training and awareness raising purposes. More videos on this series will be released shortly (2. Ethical issues of Genome Editing, 3. Genome Editing of animals and plants, etc.).
