The Project
Unethical Human Experiments, Carcinogenic Viruses, and Murder during the Cold War
James Stewart Campbell, MD.
2013
This is the story of a real clandestine program which developed a weaponized carcinogenic virus 50 years ago this year in New Orleans. “The Project” was interrupted by the mysterious death of renowned orthopedic oncologist and family friend, Dr. Mary Sherman. What really happened that night? Using actual autopsy data, autobiographical writings, and researcher’s reports the scene will be re-created. More importantly, what happened to the weaponized virus? Was it ever used to kill people? Is it still alive in a secret lab somewhere?
Of interest to oncologists, virologists, medical examiners, radiologists, public health advisors, ethicists, medical historians, engineers, and those who want to hear a chilling tale that affects medicine to this day.
