Reproductive Biomedicine & Society Online release a new open-access Special Collection edited by Anne-Kristin Kuhnt and Jasmin Passet-Wittig on the creation of families through the use of assisted reproductive technology. This is a particularly important topic for demographers, as postponement of birth continues to ages where fertility declines and more and more children are born with the help of ART.
The Special Collection had seven contributions from authors of several European and Non-European countries such as Eva Beaujouan (Austria), Ivett Szalma (Hungary), Catarina Delaunay (Portugal), Katja Köppen (Germany), and Julia McQuillan (US).
