CRYOSOCIETIES is an ERC project @GoetheUni on cryopreservation of life - oocytes, cord blood, endangered animals & more - and its role in 21st c. #biopolitics. Doing ethnographies across Europe, we seek to understand the significance of #suspendedlife for contemporary societies.

By taking part in the survey, you could provide valuable insight into the importance of this issue for parenthood and healthcare. Completing the survey will only take 15-20 minutes of your time. We would appreciate your time and support!
