How will machine learning (really) affect labor? How will a new artificial womb influence women’s health and reproductive rights? What new science is on the horizon and how do we sort through the ethical, legal, and policy questions we need to ask today to help shape the future we want tomorrow?
Convergence is a live show and podcast that brings two people from vastly different fields into conversation about how emerging science and technology will affect culture, society, and politics in the near future. Hosted by Meehan Crist, writer in residence in biological sciences at Columbia University, each event will bring out themes and ideas missing when conversations stay siloed.
