Gene editing technology gives us the ability to change our DNA – removing, adding and replacing parts of our genetic code. These technologies have been emerging and improving for some decades, but since the development of CRISPR-based editing technologies, our capacity to edit our DNA has become both more accessible, more accurate and consequently, more powerful. Gene editing could be used to prevent genetic diseases but also alter traits like height and intelligence, presenting both legal and ethical issues.A lecture by Imogen Goold recorded on 17 April 2023 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/gene-editing-lawGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

In this episode, Alma-Constance and Lucinda ask about when children can make decisions about medical treatment and why sometimes a court is involved. They talk to Imogen Goold, Professor of Medical Law at St Anne's College Oxford university and Gresham visiting professor, as she is an expert in the area of how doctors and parents talk to children about illness, their rights, and responsibilities and how the courts become involved in these decisions. Imogen tells us· who makes the decisions about children's medical treatment at different ages· what happens if the parents disagree with doctors· what happens if a young person disagrees with their parents about medical treatment plans· And how judges make their decisions when asked to decide about this issue Imogen says that when she was 10 years old she really liked reading books. and thought she wanted to be a doctor as she loved sciences. She also loved baking and entered the Great British Bake Off and met Mary Berry who liked her scones!Alma-Constance and Lucinda would love to hear from you!

Vaccination against disease has saved countless lives, yet it remains a controversial topic because of concerns some hold about safety and potential harms. Should we be legally required to vaccinate ourselves and our children? How important is individual choice when balanced against saving lives? To what extent should vaccination of children be a matter for parents or the state?This lecture considers the challenges we face in fighting disease while remaining a democratic, liberal society.A lecture by Imogen Goold recorded on 16 January 2023 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/watch-now/mandatory-vaccinationGresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters.

Mental Capacity - A/Prof Imogen Goold & Dr Cressida Auckland discuss the indicators of a lack of mental capacity, the law's cliff-edge approach to mental capacity and the mental capacity Bill and human rights.
What happens when doctors and parents cannot agree on whether a child should be given experimental medical treatment? Why is there any question mark over a parent's right to decide if medical treatment for their child continues? From the parents of Ashya King who successfully secured proton beam therapy for their son to the despair surrounding baby Charlie Gard and his life-limiting genetic disorder: how does the court make decisions that can potentially prolong life or bring about the death of a child?In this lecture, Professor Jo Delahunty is joined by Dr Imogen Goold.A lecture by Jo Delahunty QC and Dr Imogen Goold, Gresham Professor of Law and Associate Professor, Faculty of Law, University of Oxford 2 May 2019The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/child-medical-treatmentGresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597.
