Makes sense to me. In the U.S. we ought to have an informed "right to try," especially if we're already afflicted with a fatal disease: http://marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolution/2016/08/the.... That we don't is an ongoing, underreported scandal.
If I had a fatal cancer I would absolutely sign up for experimental / last ditch efforts in order to see what happens.
I realize this was a sarcastic comment but...what about "effectively" dead humans? Those deemed brain dead. I wonder if there might be legal leeway in "researching" on them?

What, as opposed to dead ones?
