Cardiac organoids do not warrant additional moral scrutiny

Jannieke N Simons Rieke van der Graaf Johannes JM van Delden

Abstrak

Abstract Certain organoid subtypes are particularly sensitive. We explore whether moral intuitions about the heartbeat warrant unique moral consideration for newly advanced contracting cardiac organoids. Despite the heartbeat’s moral significance in organ procurement and abortion discussions, we argue that this significance should not translate into moral implications for cardiac organoids.
