Nazi crimes under the catchword “euthanasia”

Since 2010, the museum located in the #UKE has been explaining the history of #nursing, #dental technology, #pathology, #infectious diseases, #microscopy, #X-ray technology in its permanent exhibitions and, since 2017, its learning and memorial site has been dealing with the medical crimes committed under #National Socialism, which cost the lives of several 100,000 people through so-called #euthanasia, #forced sterilization and #human experiments.
