RADCLIFFE INSTITUTE SCIENCE FILM SCREENING
AND PANEL DISCUSSION
 
Fixed: The Science/Fiction of Human Enhancement
Film Screening and Panel Discussion on Gene Editing and Disability
Monday, February 10, 5 PM
Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, Harvard University
 
From Botox to bionic limbs, the human body is more upgradable than ever. But how much can we alter and still be human? What do we gain or lose in the process?
The award-winning documentary  Fixed: The Science/Fiction of Human Enhancement  explores the social impact of human biotechnologies. Haunting and humorous, poignant and political,  Fixed  rethinks “disability” and “normalcy” by exploring technologies that promise to change our bodies and minds forever.
Join us for a discussion about the ethics of gene editing and disability.

Speakers
Lydia X. Z. Brown , disability justice advocate
Joseph A. Stramondo , San Diego State University
Michael Ashley Stein , Harvard Law School
