On-line guide to laws and policies
BioPolicyWiki is an on-line guide to laws and policies governing the use of human genetic and reproductive technologies throughout the world. Areas covered include eggs for assisted reproduction and research, preimplantation genetic diagnosis, cloning, sex selection and surrogacy. Being a ‘wiki’ format anyone can contribute, meaning that the initial collection of legal
and policy information will grow in quantity and quality. The Center for Genetics and Society, who developed the resource, are inviting users to log on to explore and contribute.
It is with deep sadness and regret that we announce the passing of Lynette A. Scott, PhD. We mourn the loss but celebrate her life. A life, that touched so many.
Her energy was inspiring; her passion for what she did was compelling; and her compassion and love of patients was reciprocated in kind.
There is a photograph on a cupboard in the laboratory of a young mother holding her baby. Lynette drew an arrow attached to a card that read, “This is why we are here.”
We can think of no greater tribute to our dear friend and colleague than for each of us to rededicate ourselves to this vision that she made into reality every day.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family.
Lynette A Scott PhD 1954-2012
