Tuskegee syphilis study, it’s official name is “Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male”. It’s an American medical research project that earned notoriety for its unethical experimentation on African American patients in the rural South. The project was conducted by the U.S. Public Health Service from 1932 to 1972 to examine the natural course of untreated syphilis in African American men. The research was intended to test whether syphilis caused cardiovascular damage more often than neurological damage and to determine if the natural course of syphilis in black men was significantly different from that in whites. To recruit participants for its study, the PHS enlisted the support of the prestigious Tuskegee Institute (now Tuskegee University), located in Macon County, Alabama.
