URPP H2R
As part of the strategic orientation of the research conducted at the University of Zurich, the University Research Priority Program Human Reproduction Reloaded will explore for 8 years, the rapidly changing medical technology on human reproduction and its sociological, societal, ethical and legal implications. In particular, this interdisciplinary URPP seeks to understand and provide policy guidance on the societal impact and legal challenges of such technology. Moreover, it aims at exploring the aspirations, limitations, and ethical considerations of assisted reproductive technologies (ART).
CHARLS
The aim of the survey Swiss (CH) Assisted Reproduction Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) is to gain insights into attitudes towards and knowledge about fertility, images of the family and family planning in Switzerland. The rapid developments in reproductive medicine raise new questions for both individuals and society. At the same, there is as yet very little information about how these medical and technological advances are perceived and used by the population.
