Body Donor Memorial Service 
2024

PCOM Georgia's 2024 body donor memorial service was held on Saturday, May 11, 2024, and was attended by 55 families as well as students, faculty and staff members. The service recognized the educational and research contributions of the families' loved ones who donated their bodies to science.

Family members were invited to say a few words at the podium. Many chose to thank the College and the Body Donor Program in addition to sharing stories about their loved ones or why they wanted to better medicine through their donations. Our osteopathic medical students also recognized Mother's Day by presenting white roses to donors' children in attendance.

Donations benefit many students enrolled in our osteopathic medicine, physician assistant studies, physical therapy and biomedical sciences programs. Body donations help train our medical and graduate students to learn about the human body through anatomy and pathology lessons.
