Beata Halassy , a virologist at the University of Zagreb in Croatia , made herself a test subject.
She injected herself with two types of viruses that she cultivated in a lab.
Her homegrown remedy caused her tumour to shrink, enabling surgeons to remove it.
Halassy joins a long line of researchers who have tested medical theories on themselves.
Halassy and her co-authors wrote that the study did not undergo a review by an ethics committee because it involved self-experimentation.
Opponents of the practice argue that publicizing cases like Halassy ’s risks encouraging less qualified patients to self experiment in more dangerous ways.
“Not every experiment is research,” Charo said.
