Lecture - "The Ethics of Using Medical Data from Nazi Experiments" by Baruch Cohen
Dixon Hall | Tulane Uptown Campus

Following World War II, leading Nazi doctors were brought to justice at Nuremberg after revealing evidence of sadistic human experiments at concentration camps. Since the Nuremberg trials, our society has had to confront the reality that the Nazi doctors were guilty of premeditated murder masqueraded as research. But what about the continued use of the Nazi doctors’ medical research? Is it ever appropriate to use data as morally repugnant as that which was extracted from victims of Nazism? Is so, under what circumstances? Los Angeles civil trial attorney Baruch Cohen presents these issues from a Jewish ethical perspective — using his trademark trial skills and compelling powerpoint presentation.
