Excerpt
Excerpt: The use of children in human radiation experiments has been a special ethical concern of the President’s Advisory Committee on Human Radiation Experiments. At Los Alamos, in 1963, one such experiment was performed in which eight children were given a small amount of radioactive iodine. Responsibility for the children who participated was taken by the parents. Dr. Donald Petersen, a former deputy leader of the Health Division and biochemist at the lab, was one of three parents who invited their children to participate in this experiment. Here is his story.
