FAB Gab Episode 20: Anna Nelson on Ectogenesis by Request

The latest episode of FAB Gab is now out, and in this episode, Anna Nelson discusses partial ectogenesis as a mode of delivery for pregnant people. In her paper, recently published in IJFAB, Anna argues that partial ectogenesis should be available by request.

Here’s a snapshot of the discussion:

The key central argument I’m trying to make is that partial ectogenesis could be seen as a mode of delivery. So I shifted the focus of the discussion centered on the birthing individual, rather than the technology in the idea that actually this extraction process from the human body [which] mimics quite closely… cesarean birth.”
