Summary:
Henrietta Lacks was a 31-year-old black mother of five in Baltimore when she died of cervical cancer in 1951. Without her knowledge, doctors treating her at Johns Hopkins took tissue samples from her cervix for research. Her cells became immortal and famous known as HeLa. HeLa cells were the first to grow reliably in a laboratory, and theyre still the most widely used today. Theyre responsible for everything from the Polio vaccine to gene mapping. In her book, Rebecca Skloot tells the story of Lacks, and what happened to her family after she died. The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks is part biography and part investigation into racial politics and medical ethics. The book is now available in paperback.
Then, in this weeks installment of our ongoing series This I Believe, we hear the essay of David Adinaro. As a teenager, Adinaro felt a call to practice emergency medicine. Hes now an emergency physician and chief of adult emergency medicine at St. Josephs Regional Medical Center in Paterson New Jersey. He tries to establish a personal connection with patients, to carve out time for compassion in a busy schedule. [Broadcast Date: March 18, 2011]
