My Research Project analysed where the funding for cancer research extends to, specifically focusing on, the validity of John P. Thomas’ (A specialist in Environmental Health and writer for Health Impact News) proposition involving the misappropriation of global cancer research funding. Multiple primary and secondary sources were utilised presenting Thomas’ validity. Two Primary interviews were conducted involving, John P. Thomas and Stuart Pitson (Manager of Research laboratory at the Centre of Cancer Biology). Additionally, various secondary articles such as Thomas’ The Cancer Industry is Too Prosperous To Allow A Cure, and Robert Ryan’s (Bachelor of Science) Cancer Research – A Super Fraud:, as well as documentaries including Ty Bollinger’s (Cancer Researcher) The Conspiracy Behind the Suppression of Natural Cancer Treatments were correlated and cross referenced.

These were made available to me through the Freedom of Information Act 1982 which enabled me to gain access to specific documents including annual expenditure reports. Furtherly, investigation of these reports were made to further validate Thomas’ claims concerning the misappropriation of funding. The decision to accumulate annual financial reports was highly effective, as this increased the validity of the multiple claims outlined within my outcome, which was the basis of my topic. As I only completed two interviews, the primary quantitative data from the reports furtherly validated the propositions in my outcome, primarily in support of

    A similarity between both the articles is that their cases share the concept of arguing to keep a patient informed. The Henrietta Lacks case presented in Callaway’s article shows the effect of Henrietta Lacks not receiving an informed consent when the Lacks family has their mother/grandmothers cells taken without any permission from her or her family (132). In a similar fashion, the John Moore case in Skloot’s article shows the lack of information Moore received as his doctor used his cells for monetary value. Both the Lack’s and Moore’s case have the negative outcome where cell researchers have caused both groups to suffer losses in finances and information gathering. However, unlike Callaway, Skloot also uses Ted Slavin’s case to show that when a patient receives an informed consent they are able to make money for themselves and also voluntarily help researchers gain cell resources for study (Skloot…

    In 2003, Andre Thomas viciously attacked and killed his ex-wife and her two children, and was sentenced to death row. His defense argued that he was not eligible for death row because of his mental state. The court ignored the argument and passed it off, saying that they were using his illness as an excuse to “get out of” maximum punishment. As demonstrated in this case, mental illness is not given the attention it deserves when determining a sentence. Cases such as these have aroused concern how fair the criminal court is towards the mentally ill.…

As the intern began to clean the petri dish that once held such a small but significant life, she wondered how the rest of the scientists took killing an innocent life so lightly. Stem cell research is beneficial because it helps to further the research towards the cure of diabetes, cancer, other various diseases and illnesses, and the advancement in the growth of such stem cells also helps further the research in organ growth. However, some ways the scientists conduct and carry out stem cell research is neither morally correct nor practical. Stem cell research helps further the advancement in the curing of diseases such as diabetes…

    “Until the Last Trumpet Sounds the Life of General of the Armies John J. Pershing” by Gene Smith was brilliantly written and dramatically effective work of history. Smith was able to capture factual information on the life and career of John J. Pershing. Just like most biographies they are dry factual information, this book followed that as Smith seem to want to give more of a laundry list of activities, letters, and inane facts. Although, the life and career is not a topic discussed as in-depth as some of his fellow generals, however, it is a topic that deserves the attention shown to it by Smith. Smith, known for his works on several American leaders, most notably his book on the last years of Woodrow Wilson, attempts to tackle the life…

    The main ethical dilemma in the Case of Henrietta Lacks and Debate over Ethics and Bio-Medical Research and Informed Consent is that researchers took and profited off of the cells of Henrietta Lacks without her consent and without compensating her or her family. There are certain facts that are important to understand in this case. The person who began this ethical issue was George Otto Gey when he used the cells made available to him that had been of Henrietta Lacks, creating the He-La cell line (Skloot, 2010). Sadly, at the time, informed consent did not yet exist and did not become doctrine in practice until the late 1970s which was long past Lacks’ time (Skloot, 2010). Even though informed consent was not traditionally practiced in public…

    Within the past couple of decades, most people have stopped their outdoor activities and moved indoors, ignoring all the benefits that come along with spending time outside. Instead of playing at the park, kids have halted their outdoor activities to play on their computers and game systems. As Alexandra Sifferlin writes in the July 25, 2016 edition of Time Magazine, this shift indoors has a profound negative impact on the health of adults and children all throughout the world. In Sifferlin’s article “The Healing Power of Nature,” she successfully uses ethos and logos to convince the audience that spending more time outside provides various health benefits that are ignored because of the attraction to stay indoors. Early on, Sifferlin establishes her credibility by referencing numerous studies to help illustrate her knowledge and the researching she has done for the article.…
