From Anatomic collections to objects of Worship
The Musee du Quai Branly in Paris hosted a series of round table discussions about the ethics of collecting and displaying human remains. Full text of the discussions in French and English can be found here.
Comments
Which are the organizations a person can approach if he wants his remains to be used for scientific purposes? Is there any law governing this? Does he need to inform any of his relatives or friends about his decision? Is the approval of the relatives necessary before the body is handed over for research?
