During the #Holocaust, a team of Jewish researchers in the Warsaw Ghetto documented the grim effects of starvation on the human body even as they themselves starved.

"They hoped their research would benefit future generations through better ways to treat malnutrition, and they wanted the world to know of Nazi atrocities to prevent something similar from ever happening again."

We can't tell them personally that they made a difference, but we can tell survivors about this, maybe that will give those survivors something, there is a huge legacy from the holocaust, and some of that legacy is saving lives now.
