Abstract
Auto-experimentation has received little attention in the scientific literature and codes of ethics. When mentioned, it has been regarded sometimes as a foolhardy method though it is one of the strongest and yet least appreciated traditions in medical research. At least 185 investigators in four continents have served as subjects in 137 experiments over the last four centuries.Keywords
