Many medical experiments were performed during the Holocaust. Josef Mengle sewed Jewish twins together to make Siamese twins, but that wasn't all that he did. He also froze them to see how long they could stay in cold water. Many Nazis were involved in trying to transplant bone, muscle, and tissue. The doctors tried to find antibiotics to gas gangrene by creating battle like wounds on victims and then infecting them, they would rub sawdust dust, glass and wood all in these wounds. Jews were used to perfect methods of torture, and to perfect methods of execution. Experiments were harsh, and unprecedented.

Did you Know that not all of the doctors in concentration camps were actually licensed? They performed experiments while drunk, and angry. Half of their research was biased and probably not up to par in the medical world today.

On December 9th 1946 there was a trial held were many Nazi physicians were prosecuted for crimes against war and crimes against humanity.
