Tuskegee Syphilis Study
United States Public Health Service와 CDC가 터스키기 대학과 함께 한 매독 연구. 1932년에서 1972년 간 40년에 걸쳐 진행.
A study conducted on a group of nearly 400 African American men with syphilis. The purpose of the study was to observe the effects of the disease when untreated, though by the end of the study medical advancements meant it was entirely treatable. The men were not informed of the nature of the experiment, and more than 100 died as a result.1
