Henrietta Lacks (1921-1950)

HeLa Cells and Henrietta Lacks
To account for the scientific and medical profit obtained through experiments performed using HeLa cells, our lab has pledged to make donations to the Henrietta Lacks Foundation for all HeLa cell lines we created in the past and those that we create in the future. We encourage other labs to do the same. Make a donation to the Henrietta Lacks Foundation
