She was a poor black tobacco farmer whose cells\u2014taken without her knowledge in 1951\u2014became one of the most important tools in medicine, vital for developing the polio vaccine, cloning, gene mapping, and more. Henrietta&#8217;s cells have been bought and sold by the billions, yet she remains virtually unknown, and her family can&#8217;t afford health insurance. This phenomenal New York Times bestseller tells a riveting story of the collision between ethics, race, and medicine; of scientific discovery and faith healing; and of a daughter consumed with questions about the mother she never knew.\u201d from Amazon.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On this Theme Thursday we\u2019ll go back to the class of 2016\u2019s summer reading book, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, written by Rebecca Skloot. \u201cHer name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa.
