Organ Transplantation

Lectures

What Happens to Jesus If I Donate My Heart?
This talk aims to bridge faith and medicine, philosophy and theology, religion and culture, around the clinical context of organ donation and transplantation. Dr. Rosell makes special use of a 1944 book on "donor mutilation" by Fr. Bert Cunningham, who theologized and philosophized on early 20th century reports of successful ovarian transplants.
