    Two dermatologists at the University of California, San Francisco — one of whom remains at the university — conducted the experiments on men at the California Medical Facility, a prison hospital in Vacaville that’s about 50 miles (80.47 kilometers) northeast of San Francisco. The practice was halted in 1977.

    This person should be found and they should never get another day of rest. The university should never know peace again.

        Reflection on past practices

        We found no documentation of regret or remorse by Maibach or Epstein regarding their human subjects research on incarcerated individuals at CMF. In fact, Epstein testified at the 1977 state hearings in support of biomedical experimentation in California prisons.43 Epstein died in 2006 and we found no documentation of him changing his opinion on biomedical experimentation. In an unpublished interview, Maibach defended human subjects research on those who are incarcerated as a catalyst for knowledge. In addition, He voiced support for Albert Kligman’s human subjects research on those incarcerated at Holmesberg prison. To our knowledge, he has yet to discuss the research he conducted at CMF in public.

        What a piece of shit.
