Abstract

Dr. Josef Mengele's medical experimentation performed at the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp in Poland (1943-1945), on twins, dwarfs, and individuals with various genetic anomalies represents deplorable misuse of the twin design. Many innocent victims suffered needlessly at the hands of this cruel physician. His work and that of his collaborators has generated data regarded by medical experts as completely devoid of scientific validity.
