Event Description
This live event is presented by pathologists, Rebecca Hassard and Rossa Inglis and involves a ‘living’ dead body, played by an actor. This event will take attendees through the process of a post-mortem examination, showing the real instruments used, explaining where incisions are made, how each organ is examined, and what tests might be carried out. It will also explain the role of pathologists, and what circumstances would lead to a post-mortem being required for someone who has died.
