AI Summary
This bill amends existing law to establish definitions and provisions regarding in vitro fertilization (IVF). It updates the heading of the relevant chapter to include "in vitro fertilization" alongside "artificial insemination." The bill defines key terms related to IVF, such as "assisted reproduction," "embryo," and "gamete." It also establishes that no law shall unduly restrict a patient's right to possession of any embryos created as part of the IVF process, and that an embryo fertilized using IVF shall not be considered a pregnancy until successfully implanted in the uterus. Additionally, the bill prohibits the use of IVF-fertilized embryos for research purposes. The bill declares an emergency and states that it shall take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
