Professor Beth Burkstrand-Reid, an expert in reproductive health law, is quoted in New Scientist magazine's take on a controversial new technology to help women maintain their fertility. The new technology, ovary freezing, has been used to help women whose fertility may be destroyed because of diseases such as cancer. The experimental option has the potential, however, to extend the time during which a woman can become pregnant. It may also be used to delay menopause, in turn delaying or stopping the onset of osteoporosis.

The article, "Frozen in Time: A controversial technology could be the end of the biological clock," appears in the April 14th issue.
