The latest edition of the CedarEthics Podcast, a production of the Center for Bioethics at Cedarville University, deals with the sticky ethical question of using the medical research data obtained during the Holocaust.

Should we make use of the data that the Nazi doctors obtained, even though it was often gathered by taking the lives of Jewish prisoners in death camps? Or is it more respectful of the dignity of those who died in the Holocaust to let this information die with them?

Special guests in this podcast are five Cedarville University students in our ‘Principles of Bioethics’ class. Check out the discussion (you don’t need an iPod to listen), which makes some very effective arguments on both sides of the issue.
