This project has applied benefits which lie in its ability to stimulate and inform broad participation in an important contemporary national debate about the use and abuse of human remains. Medical authorities fear that, following the disclosure of abusive practices with the dead, public distrust will lead to fewer bodies being donated for post-mortem medical use. The project will engage in these debates, in both academic and non-academic forums, to facilitate a deeper understanding of what needs to be taken into account in national initiatives to deter unethical practices with human remains and provide donors with greater confidence.

该项目的好处在于，它能够激励和宣传广泛参与当代关于使用和滥用人类遗骸的重要全国辩论。医疗当局担心，在披露虐待死者的做法后，公众的不信任将导致捐赠用于死后医疗用途的尸体减少。该项目将在学术和非学术论坛上参与这些辩论，以促进更深入地了解在国家举措中需要考虑哪些因素，以阻止利用人类遗骸的不道德做法，并增强捐助者的信心。
