In the autumn of 2021, the method for organ donation called cDCD (controlled donation after circulatory death) was approved in Norway after a long and thorough process. In this process, critical questions were asked although the method is already established in many other countries. In order to maintain good trust in the health care system, we want to address this questions surrounding organ donation after cardiac arrest, and provide some insights into how cDCD is performed in practice: How is the dying patient and relatives taken into account? What exactly is cDCD?

The ultimate boundaries of human reproduction lie at the limited availability of egg and sperm.  The ability to create sperm and eggs in the laboratory opens up a new world of reproductive possibilities. Imagine a world in which same sex couples can have babies genetically related to both partners. Where the menopause no longer spells the end of a woman¡¯s fertility. Where any individual, of any age, can produce both sperm and eggs. 

Mental disorders are recognized as leading causes of disability and morbidity globally, and are among the costliest disorders to affect humans. The causal underpinnings of these disorders is a complex web of genetic, biological and psychosocial mechanisms. Recent advances in technology and computational techniques can help disentangle this complexity, leading to a further understanding of the conditions and subsequently better strategies for treatment and prevention.

We look at the climate crisis in a Hamlet perspective. 

In the last decade, artificial intelligence has surpassed humans in among others the games of Go and Starcraft. Many researchers believe it's only a matter of time before we make an artificial intelligence that is smarter than humans in all areas. Most famous of these is Ray Kurzweil who predicts this will happen before the year 2050. But will this intelligence be conscious? What are the implications if it is or not? We invite to a panel discussion where these and other questions will be discussed.
