*medico-military research: freezing, high altitude, sea water experiements, sulfanilamide, TB experiments, etc
*others: poison, wound, artificial insemination, sterilization experiments
These are examples of the various types of experiments that Nazis conducted on Jews and prisoners in the name of medical research. They were of course also methods of torture, but people conducting these were qualified scientists and doctors, who collected and compiled the data.
Following the war, the United States (e.g. CIA) hired Nazi scientists based on their wartime research. Today, there are scientists and those in academia who believe the taboo Nazi past is holding back modern research and treatment.
Obviously there is no question whatsoever about the ethics and brutality of how
these were obtained. The question is this:
==>If this data has potential to help future patients and further the advancement in medicine, do you think it's acceptable to use them given the circumstances under which they were obtained?
