It provides an overview of how the programme operates, and why the Department of Anatomy and Structural Biology at the University of Otago (Dunedin, New Zealand) requires cadavers (bodies). It also looks at the acceptance and restrictions of bequests, and the altruistic nature of those who bequeath themselves to the Department. | | Language | eng | | Pub Type(s) | Journal Article
