THE NUREMBERG DOCTORS TRIAL
Season 10 | Episode 187
16m | Aug 27, 2026Episode 187 | Historical Events
In this History episode we focus on the Nuremberg Doctors Trial of 1946 to 1947 — the prosecution of 23 Nazi physicians for human experiments on concentration camp prisoners, the defense argument that no international law prohibited such experiments, and how the tribunal's verdict produced the Nuremberg Code, which established for the first time that voluntary consent is absolutely essential in human research.
It had to be written down because it was not obvious to the men who had medical degrees and oaths and did the experiments anyway.
