In 1951, cells were taken from Henrietta Lacks and used for many years in research. Henrietta did not give
permission for her cells to be used, the law did not require that. These cells have been used in over 60,000
research projects, but Henrietta's family has not received any compensation for contribution to the research. Do
you think the law should be changed? Should people be compensated for donating their cells to science?
