Stanford Broke Funding Laws With Experiment Involving Aborted Babies – Watchdog Group Medical ethics nonprofit alleges Stanford University broke federal law Image Credit: Email A medical ethics nonprofit is alleging that Stanford University broke federal law with a research project involving aborted babies. The White Coat Waste Project — a non-profit organization working to stop “wasteful,” publicly funded animal testing — filed a complaint with the National Institute of Health alleging that Stanford University repeatedly violated federal law by failing to disclose how much taxpayer money was spent on experiments that entailed implanting fingers and femurs from aborted human babies into mice. In the 2018 study, fingers from the remains of eighteen-week-old human fetuses were implanted into five-day-old mice. Four weeks later, the researchers broke the fingers and left them inside the baby mice for two more weeks.
