Willed Body Memorial
The Willed Body Memorial is a deeply meaningful event that honors the lives of individuals who have generously donated their bodies to science and medical education. Sponsored by the Andreas Vesalius Osler Student Society in collaboration with the Willed Body Memorial Ceremony Committee, the ceremony serves as a tribute to their selfless contributions to learning and discovery.
Students from across UTMB—including the Schools of Medicine, Physical Therapy, and Physician Assistant Studies—contribute through musical performances, readings, and other artistic expressions, creating a reflective and inspirational atmosphere.
This special ceremony is open to all and offers the UTMB community an opportunity to express gratitude and respect for the donors' lasting impact on medical education.
