Jackie Dent is a journalist and an author. She's been writing fiction for years, but found success with non fiction and a much more personal story about her grandparents donating their bodies to science. She's the author of "The Great Dead Body Teachers". Her journey began when she started to dive into the reasons why her paternal grandparents had donated their bodies to a university.
On this episode we cover everything from whole body donation, organ donation, who the donors are, dissection, to who the people behind making body donation possible are. Enjoy!
