Some object on an ethical basis, and others have rejected Nazi research purely on scientific grounds, pointing out methodological inconsistencies. In an often-cited review of the Dachau hypothermia experiments, Berger states that the study has "all the ingredients of a scientific fraud" and that the data "cannot advance science or save human ...
A 1953 article in the medical/scientific journal Clinical Science [110] described a medical experiment in which researchers intentionally blistered the skin on the abdomens of 41 children, who ranged in age from 8 to 14, using cantharide.

This discovery was critical to the formulation of the Watson-Crick Model of DNA structure. Neil Bartlett mixes xenon and platinum hexafluoride leading to the first synthesis of a noble gas compound, xenon hexafluoroplatinate (1962). Robert Burns Woodward announces the total synthesis of Vitamin B-12 by a team he led (1973).
Ideas include the theory of the Big Bang, tissue culture, radio astronomy, and the discovery of DNA. [2] Such archeological discoveries as the Rosetta Stone, the Dead Sea Scrolls and the ruins of Pompeii also emerged partly out of serendipity. [1] Many relevant and well known scientific theories were developed by chance at some degree along ...
