A medical student's first patient is the cadaver in anatomy class. Last week, first-year medical students at UNC-Chapel Hill held a cadaver memorial service to thank donors and their families. Students played music, danced, read poetry and reflected with their classmates. Students and family members described the mood as thankful and celebratory rather than somber. Yasmeen Khan prepared this audio postcard from the service.
