This project aims to assess the morality of ectogenesis, the process of gestating a foetus in an artificial womb. Recent technological advances in non-human ectogenesis raise the question of whether it is desirable to pursue research in human ectogenesis. This project expects to generate new knowledge in social philosophy by inquiring into the value of natural gestation, the foundations of parenthood, and the interests of foetuses during gestation. Expected outcomes of this project include an improved understanding of the costs, risks, and benefits of ectogenesis. This should provide significant benefits, such as resources for ethical decision-making in light of technologies aimed at radically reshaping the process of human creation.

该项目旨在评估体外受精的道德性，即在人工子宫中孕育胎儿的过程。近年来在非人类外生殖方面的技术进步提出了一个问题，即是否值得进行人类外生殖的研究。本项目希望通过探究自然妊娠的价值、为人父母的基础以及妊娠期间胎儿的利益，产生新的社会哲学知识。该项目的预期结果包括提高对体外生殖的成本、风险和收益的理解。这将带来重大的好处，例如，鉴于旨在从根本上重塑人类创造过程的技术，将为伦理决策提供资源。
