Why did OHSU decide to sponsor the BODY WORLDS 3 exhibit?
As the state’s only health and science university, OHSU has a responsibility to support medical education within the community. Gunther von Hagens’ BODY WORLDS 3: The Anatomical Exhibition of Real Human Bodies offers a unique, thought-provoking exhibit that will intimately engage viewers young and old. And, like BODY WORLDS 3, OHSU strives to make human anatomy accessible to the general public. BODY WORLDS 3 demystifies the complex clusters of tissue and blood underneath our skin. BODY WORLDS 3 also will be educational for those in health care.
