SUMMARY:Human Tissue Ethics in Anatomy\, Past and Present: From Bodies to Tissues to Data
DESCRIPTION:Waterhouse Room\, Gordon Hall\, Harvard Medical School 
 Campus\n\nCo-sponsored by the Ackerman Program on Medicine and Culture\, 
 Harvard University\; the Center for the History of Medicine in the Francis 
 A. Countway Library\; the Department of Global Health and Social Medicine\, 
 Harvard Medical School\; and the Department of Pediatrics\, Boston 
 Children’s Hospital \n\n\n\nAnatomy as a science and as an educational 
 discipline in the medical curriculum is forever in transition. One of the 
 greatest areas of change in recent decades has been the systematic 
 evaluation of ethical questions in anatomy. At the center of these 
 deliberations is the status of the dead human body\, which is no longer 
 only seen as a mere “object” or “material” of research or as an 
 educational “tool.” Rather\, it is described as a body that still has 
 connections with the person who once inhabited it\, thus becoming part of a 
 social network of knowledge gain and requiring respectful treatment. 
 \n\nThis change of perspective will be explored in the symposium\, “Human 
 Tissue Ethics in Anatomy\, Past and Present: From Bodies to Tissues to 
 Data.” An international group of scholars will discuss the ethical 
 aspects of existing questions\, explore the relevance of non-profit and 
 for-profit body donation\, and examine newly emerging technologies in 
 anatomy that may need innovative ethical approaches. The aim of this 
 symposium is to present evidence for the insight that transparent and 
 ethical anatomical body and tissue procurement is indeed at the core of 
 medical ethics in research and education.\n\nRegistration is required
