WHAT ARE THE ABORTED FETAL RESEARCH EXPERIMENTS HAPPENING AT PITT?

Read to learn more

The University of Pittsburgh has been federally funded by our government to conduct aborted fetal tissue and organ testing and harvesting under the name of GUDMAP, which stands for the GenitoUrinary Developmental Molecular Anatomy Project.

The University of Pittsburgh is the leader in the efforts to experiment on aborted children with their Human Tissue Bank and Hub, which is nationally recognized for the procurement of children from all developmental weeks in gestation.

WHAT IS GUDMAP?

GUDMAP Quick Facts

The University of Pittsburgh has been executing tests on aborted fetal tissue and organs for GUDMAP, the GenitoUrinary Developmental Molecular Anatomy Project

  • The GUDMAP initiative provides a high resolution map of gene expression in the mice GenitoUrinary system.

  • The Health Sciences Tissue Bank (HSTB) at the University of Pittsburgh has been “collecting, maintaining, and dispersing” samples of aborted fetal tissues that are “very high quality tissue and biological specimens (according to the NIH federal grant application).” 

  • GUDMAP lab at the University of Pittsburgh partnered with the International Institute of the Advancement of Medicine for access to “novel resources for neonatal donation,” which includes children from the ages of 25-42 weeks old.

$613,000 was annually distributed to the University of Pittsburgh for 5 years, summing to over $2.7 million in federal funds from the National Institute of of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases within the National Institute of Health​

  • The University is now established as a major distribution hub for aborted fetal kidneys and other body parts for NIH-funded projects across the country
