Donating your body to science, doesn't guarantee that it will be used for this purpose. Instead it might become merchandise in a national network of human remains traffickers.
Not even giving your body to a university can keep it safe. On Wednesday, June 14, 2023, Cedric Lodge the morgue manager who worked at Harvard Medical School since 1995, was indicted. He is facing federal changes of selling heads, brains, skin and other body parts. These were taken from cadavers donated to Harvard Medical School for research and education. Harvard fired him on May 6, 2023.
