Autopsy

As well as operating on the living, doctors have always examined the dead to find out more about how the body works and what can go wrong.

This is your chance to find out what an autopsy involves and how it has changed over the centuries.

You can meet a real pathologist and even handle some of the instruments they use.

Find out what doctors can learn from the dead  and how this can help the living.

A National Pathology Week event.
