Zerhouni Opens Exhibit at Holocaust Museum

NIH director Dr. Elias Zerhouni gave opening remarks at a new exhibit at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum on Apr. 21. The exhibit, titled, "Deadly Medicine: Creating the Master Race," is on view for free at the museum's Kimmel-Rowan exhibition gallery and runs through Oct. 16, 2005. The exhibit features more than 200 artifacts, almost 200 photographs/reproductions and survivor testimony. It draws on 40 archival sources from around the world and is the first U.S. exhibition to present a history of the Nazi biological state. Zerhouni also toured the exhibit (below) with curator Susan Bachrach (r). (Photos courtesy carlcoxphoto.com.)
