“Training in anatomy is an essential foundation of medical practice. This process is carried out with the highest respect, rigour and sense of responsibility, honouring the contribution of each donor.”

— Luís Mascarenhas, Head of the Body Donation Programme at Católica Medical School and Coordinator of the Department of Anatomy

“Body donation to science is an act of immense generosity towards those who are learning, as well as towards society as a whole. Those who choose to donate their bodies make it possible to train those who will one day care for the most vulnerable and for those most in need. Our gratitude is immeasurable.”

— António Medina de Almeida, Dean of Católica Medical School
