Join us for an insightful lecture that explores the cutting-edge intersection of biotechnology and social futures. In this talk, Prof. Dr. Thomas Lemke will delve into the fascinating world of cryopreservation—the technology of freezing organic material—and its role in shaping future possibilities. By examining "frozen zoos" and the freezing of human eggs, Prof. Lemke highlights how these technologies are part of a broader practice of anticipation, allowing societies to manage biological futures.

Don’t miss this opportunity to engage with the profound implications of these practices for society and the future of life itself. Whether in person or online, your participation will contribute to a lively discussion about how we manage and anticipate the challenges of tomorrow.
