Harvard Medical School is at the center of a macabre scandal involving the illegal sale of body parts meant for science. It's the subject of the newest season of the WBUR podcast, Last Seen.

The season dives into the little-known and little-regulated world of human remains collecting. The season also raises questions about the meaning our bodies hold after death. Reporter Ally Jarmanning joins us to discuss.

This segment aired on May 2, 2024.
