Discussion: Can Henrietta Lacks Show Us the Way?

Who owns your cells? When they are in your body, it’s not much of a question. But, does the answer change if they have been taken for testing?

Henrietta Lacks was a 31-year-old mother of five when she died in 1951 of a particularly fast-moving form of cervical cancer. Doctors treating her at Johns Hopkins Hospital took samples of her cancer cells for study. Ms. Lack’s cell line was the first human cell line to grow in a lab environment and went on to help develop the polio vaccine, chemotherapy, in vitro fertilization, and much more.

Does the magnitude of these scientific achievements outweigh the fact that doctors did not obtain consent from Ms. Lacks?

In this Discussion, you will analyze the Henrietta Lacks case, including the use of research results without informed consent, by applying ethical and legal principles.

To prepare for this Discussion:

  • Review the Learning Resources related to the Henrietta Lacks case and the famous “HeLa” cell line.
By Day 4

Post a comprehensive response to the following:

  • In your opinion, who owns the results of health-related research (i.e., the cells, the cell lines)? Does it belong to the subject, the medical organization, the researcher, etc.? Support your rationale using ethical principles.
  • Should Henrietta Lacks’ descendants receive compensation for the research conducted with HeLa cells and the advancements that stemmed from that research? Support your rationale with legal principles.
  • If Ms. Lacks had given informed consent, would your opinion change? Explain.

Project: Final Project Submission
Throughout this course, you have developed a relationship with an art form of your choosing. You have looked at this work of art through several lenses that were designed to deepen your appreciation for the art and increase your awareness of how art is created and exhibited. You have studied how art, in general, and your chosen art form, in particular, impacts culture, society, and even civilization. Finally, as you studied your chosen art form, you became an active participant in the creative, artistic process.

Submission of Final Project: In Week 1, you identified a local exhibition, event, presentation, or production of an art form that you could attend by the end of Week 4. In Week 2, you selected the art form and within that art form, the specific work of art that you investigate and explore for your Final Project. In Week 3, you discovered and outlined the influence of the philosophical and religious environment in the era in which your chosen work of art was created. In Week 4, you described the historical and cultural context of the literature written in the same era as the artwork you chose.. This week you submit your completed Final Project. Congratulations!

By Day 7
Submit your Final Project:

In a 4-page paper, using the “APA Course Paper Template, 6th ed. Write a detailed, three-part artistic criticism of the artwork you chose, including the components of descriptive, interpretive, and evaluative criticism described in your course text, and found in the “Humanities Through the Arts Classroom Glossary” following guidelines:
Draw valuable information from the research you performed throughout the course. You may repeat fragments of text you wrote in the Assignments you submitted in prior weeks.
If the exhibition consisted of several individual pieces of art (for example, a gallery of paintings or sculptures, or several plays throughout the week), narrow your focus to a subset of the entire display. Look for a group with common characteristics (such as a specific artist, genre, or physical grouping, or a political theme, or cultural message).
Consider the aesthetic choices made by the curator, host, exhibitor, producer, or sponsor, as well as those made by the artist.
Create an engaging title indicating the general theme or thesis of your essay. The title should express the overall point you are trying to make in your essay.
Remember to cite and reference all sources, per the examples provided in the Course Paper Templates in this week’s Learning Resources.

Proofread before submitting your work.
In the same document (within the 4–6 pages), write 3–4 paragraphs responding to the following:
Put yourself in the shoes of those who planned the exhibit or event you chose to analyze. What goals might you have had for enrichment of your local community through this presentation?
Did those who presented this exhibit or event succeed in revealing values and a level of civic engagement in the community in which it was presented? Why, or why not?
Reflect on your personal experience or opinion regarding art before this course. How has your perception of art changed as a result of the course and your experience with the artwork you chose to study? Explain.
Support your assertions by making at least two documented references to your course readings, following documentation examples in the “Common Reference List Examples” link in this week’s Learning Resources.
