Understanding egg freezing: Bridging clinical and sociological questions to explore a rapidly expanding phenomenon
In this talk, I present both findings and methodological reflections from my current ongoing research on 'social' egg freezing in the UK. As an in-house, clinically-based social scientist (since October 2016), I will offer some thoughts on the opportunities and challenges of such a unique position, as well as on (my attempts at) bridging the various interfaces between research, clinical practice, regulation, and pubic and media debates. Throughout, I will discuss our multi-faceted findings on 'social' egg freezing, and also the unanticipated ways in which our multi-disciplinary collaborations led to pertinent questions and counter-intuitive answers.
For more information please contact: Rebecca Lynch ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>) or Melissa Parker ([log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>)
All welcome, please distribute widely.
Best wishes,
Rebecca and Melissa
