This is literally from whitehouse.gov, I can't belive this is an official post from the executive branch. I feel like it needs to be shared for posterity. (infosec.pub)

There's a list of experiments. They mostly sound pretty standard, looking at the effects of various (hormone, etc.) medications on things like breast cancer, reproduction, etc. Tons and tons of medical experiments covering all sorts of different things are carried out each year. And they're a big part of why the USA has long been a leader in drug and medical research.
