Will medical facts found by Mengele ever be useful?

Hi Katy THE ETHICS OF USING MEDICAL DATA FROM MAZI EXPERIMENTS. Please note that all Jewish people captured by Nazi's were used as experiments (including the Gypsies) and these poor people were tortured, maimed, given no anesthetic (saved for the German soldiers) and most died due to these experiments. These doctors should never have been honored with the title of "doctor" (healer) because they inflicted horrible pain on their prisoners and had no remorse for their actions. Most of the prisoners died from: bleeding to death, dehydration, heart gave out from the pain. Nazi doctors were brought to justice before the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg. 20 doctors were charged with War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity. The Nuremberg trial of the doctors revealed evidence of sadistic human experiments conducted at the Dachau, Auschwitz, Buchenwald and Sachsenhausen concentration camps. The Nazi doctors were guilty of premeditated murder masqueraded as research. Professional modern medicine has had little difficulty condemning the Nazi doctors as evil men, but they question if they can use some of their research in a more humane way. Many scholars are now discovering reputable medical literature multiple references to Nazi experiments, or republished works of former SS doctors. In recent years several scientists who have sought to use the Nazi research have attracted and stirred widespread soul-searching about the social responsibility and potential abuses. These incidents prompt a number of questions for the scientific community. Is it ever appropriate to use data as morally repugnant as what these doctors did during WW2? JOSEPH MENGELE Experiments on twins were performed by the infamous doctor Joseph Mengele at Auschwitz. Among Mengele's favorite experimental subjects were Jewish dwarves and identical twins. Mengele's obsession with the Nazi ideology of racial purity and Aryanism led him to believe that he could unlock the secrets of human reproduction and multiple births. This goal was to help use the Aryan "master" race multiply in even greater numbers and eventually to repopulate the world with Germans. Of the 1,000 pairs of twins used, about 200 pairs survived. Nice guy! Some things in this world are better left alone and Mingele's scientific research in one of them.
