Science Night with Depth

The event is part of an evening where Bonn presents science as an experience: interactive formats, lectures, and open access create a special event atmosphere. The lecture clearly focuses on bioethics, research ethics, and the question of how far medical and technological optimization can go. Daniela Proske works at the University of Bonn in the field of moral theology and researches, among other things, genome editing and CRISPR/Cas9 in humans.

Why this Topic is Relevant Now

New genetic engineering is among the questions that affect medicine, society, and faith ethics at the same time. This is precisely where the evening begins: with an understandable, discussion-open communication and a perspective that considers not only facts but also values. This makes the event particularly exciting for young adults and high school students seeking orientation in a highly relevant research field.
