True

Explanation:

The Nuremberg Code derives from the Nuremberg Trial which happened in the late 1940s for the German officers including physicians who committed crimes against humanity by doing horrible experiments on prisoners in Nazi camps during World War II. Nuremberg Code comes under the health policy and law, which is expanded and codified in American federal statuary and regulatory law concerning biomedical research.
