Abandoned DNA and the Ownership of Sperm (Part 2)

December 17, 2019

Are DNA, human tissue, and sperm "property"? What rights do you have over discarded DNA or cells that you shed everyday? Can you be sued for paternity for donating sperm or "stolen" sperm? Professor Glenn Cohen explores these questions and more.


Prof. Cohen is one of the world's leading experts at the intersection of bioethics and the law, as well as health law. A professor at Harvard Law School, Glenn Cohen also serves as the Faculty Director of the Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics at Harvard Law School.
