There was also the case of the Willowbrook Hepatitis Experiments. Mentally disabled children at the Willowbrook State School were deliberately infected with hepatitis virus. This was done under the guise of studying the disease, but it was clearly unethical as these vulnerable children were used as guinea pigs without proper consent or regard for their well - being.
One example could be the Tuskegee Syphilis Study. In this study, African - American men with syphilis were not treated even when effective treatments became available, just so researchers could observe the natural progression of the disease. It was a huge violation of ethical standards as the subjects were deceived and left to suffer needlessly.
Strict ethical guidelines need to be in place. Institutions should have independent ethics review boards that thoroughly vet research proposals. For example, the IRB (Institutional Review Board) in the US reviews research involving human subjects to ensure it meets ethical standards.
Well, in terms of scientific research on tapeworms, a success story could be the mapping of their genomes. By sequencing the genomes of different tapeworm species, researchers have been able to identify specific genes that are involved in their survival mechanisms such as those related to nutrient absorption and evading the host's immune system. This knowledge is crucial for developing more effective anti - tapeworm medications. It also helps in understanding the evolutionary history of these parasites and how they have adapted over time to become such successful parasites.
One success story is in treating leukemia. Stem cell transplants have been used to replace damaged bone marrow in leukemia patients. The stem cells can develop into healthy blood cells, giving patients a new chance at life.
Some six subject science fiction could involve the subjects of cloning, virtual reality, black holes, interstellar travel, terraforming, and nanotechnology. A story could be about scientists using nanotechnology to terraform a planet while on an interstellar travel mission. They encounter a black hole which causes some issues with their virtual reality systems that they use for various purposes, and also have to deal with the moral implications of cloning.
One well - known example is the case of Carl Tanzler. He was so obsessed with a patient named Elena Milagro de Hoyos that after she died, he took her body and tried to preserve it, even living with it for years. It was a truly macabre situation that horrified the local community when it was discovered.
There could be a story of a young artist who painted murals on the walls of an abandoned building in a poor neighborhood. His art brightened up the area and inspired the local kids. They started to gather around him while he painted, and he even taught them some basic painting techniques.
Well, 'Crime and Punishment' by Fyodor Dostoevsky can be considered in a sense. Raskolnikov's crime is explored in great psychological depth, which is like a form of research into the nature of crime. Then there's 'True Grit' by Charles Portis. The character Mattie Ross goes on a journey to seek justice for her father's murder, and in the process, there is research involved in tracking down the criminal. And of course, 'The Big Sleep' by Raymond Chandler, where Marlowe has to research and piece together different elements of the crimes he's investigating.
One horror story is about a young girl who was lured with the promise of a good job in a big city. She was then trapped in a brothel and forced into prostitution. She was beaten if she refused to comply. It was a nightmare for her, constantly fearing for her life and having no way to escape until finally, with great courage and some help from a sympathetic outsider, she managed to get free.
There's the story of a cursed object. A young woman buys an antique mirror at a flea market. Once she brings it home, she starts seeing a distorted figure in it. As days pass, she becomes more and more ill, and realizes that every previous owner of the mirror has met an untimely death. It's as if the mirror is sucking the life out of her.
In some twin horror stories, there are twins who have a psychic connection. But this connection is exploited by an evil force. For instance, when one twin gets injured, the other feels the pain double. And they start seeing disturbing visions that lead them into a world of horror.
