Tonight in the Hong Kong Theatre at the London School of Economics, he will deliver the Clifford Barclay Lecture entitled Will biomedicine transform society?
Laurie Taylor talks to Professor Nikolas Rose about the impact of biotechnology: will it re-shape our society, family life and our own sense of who we are and what we can hope for? And does it hold the possibility to alleviate or exacerbate the huge global inequalities in health?
