Nazi Medical Experiments

Nazi medical experiments were unethical and brutal scientific studies conducted by the Nazi regime during WWII, often involving prisoners in concentration camps. These experiments aimed to answer military or racial theories but caused immense suffering, injury, and death. Examples include testing the limits of endurance, sterilization methods, hypothermia, and chemical wars. They violated basic human rights and ethics, and their atrocities led to the development of modern principles of medical ethics, emphasizing informed consent and humane treatment. These experiments are widely condemned as some of the worst abuses in medical history.
