Abstract

Incorporating engineering ethics early during the planning stages of organoid and gastruloid research may help prevent future confusion about the moral status of complex models of human development. However, the intrinsic self-organizing behavior of organoids and gastruloids may pose a slight challenge to this novel ethical approach.
