OHSU Body Donation Program

The OHSU Body Donation Program has been an integral part of medical education and research in Oregon, providing the opportunity for whole body donation to those who wish to make a final, end-of-life contribution to society. The service we offer benefits not only the donors and their families but also the entire community of students and practitioners of medical science.

" I want to tell you how much the service meant to me. It was such a wonderful experience to find and be able to share with the students that studied my husband. I shared my experience of the service with Dick's support group. They were so moved they asked me to write it out so they could print it in the monthly newsletter."
