The report of the Lancet Commission on medicine, Nazism, and the Holocaust explores medicine’s role in one of the darkest periods of modern history. In addition to a global launch in Vienna, the Commission revealed its findings and recommendations to an audience of academics, students, representatives of victims of the Nazi regime, and leaders of German and international medical institutions. Statements were given throughout the course of the event, and several important commitments to teach and honour this history - and its significance in global medicine - were made.
