Description:	On 4 March 1945 liberated Auschwitz prisoner doctors made an international declaration on how prisoners had been treated as experimental animals. They urged the Allies and neutral states to bring to trial those responsible.1 They hoped that prosecuting perpetrators would prevent coerced human experiments and medical atrocities from recurring in the future. Survivors and witnesses of human experiments called for documentation of Nazi medical abuses, justice and compensation. Their role in alerting the Allies to medical atrocities, and in declaring the need for a humane and ethical medicine oriented to consent of the patient and research subject merits historical recognition.
