As a body donor within the AGR, you will enable the advancement of medical practices and biomedical knowledge among medical trainees. This includes serving as an unparalleled educator teaching human anatomy, empathy, and humility to physicians-in-training. Donors may also serve to train current physicians and medical personnel in state-of-the-art medical practices. Additionally, donors may be involved in research investigating mechanisms of disease and injury, developing surgical techniques, or community education programs. In considering a donation to our program, you have the potential to help advance medicine and healthcare for future generations.

While we make every effort to honor a donor鈥檚 wish to donate, we must review medical history prior to acceptance of remains by the AGR. Our team will run a quick screening via the healthcare professional of registered donors upon passing to ensure donors are fit for our program. We cannot accept donors who are under 18 years of age. Furthermore, we cannot accept donors who test positive for blood-borne pathogens such as HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, tuberculosis, sepsis, MRSA, COVID-19, etc. Donor height and weight should be proportionate. Because acceptability is determined on an individual basis, we may be unable to accept donors for such reasons. As such, we strongly urge donors to have a secondary plan for handling remains should they be declined from the AGR.
