If any of you were listening to MPR this morning, you would have heard the fascinating discussion with Deborah Spar, author of “The Baby Business.”

Spar is a Harvard business professor who thinks we should call the $4-billion industry of in vitro fertilization services and adoption what it is - a business. And then regulate it better.

Spar is speaking over lunch hour today at the University of Minnesota and Strib medical reporter Josephine Marcotty will be there. Josephine and I worked on our series  on infertility over the summer and Spar’s book was essential reading for us. 

She’ll post her thoughts on the talk when she gets back. So check back later today.
