Living Autopsy with Dr Suzy Lishman CBE: Newcastle Castle

What does an autopsy actually involve? How do autopsies help determine common causes of death? And how has the autopsy process evolved over the years?

Head to Newcastle Castle this September where award-winning pathologist Dr Suzy Lishman will answer these questions and many more during her Living Autopsy talk during which she’ll demonstrate what happens during an autopsy with the help of a live model.

For anybody feeling fainthearted, fear not – there will be no dead bodies, blood or body parts involved in the event. However, some descriptions of autopsies will be quite detailed, so if you’re especially squeamish you might want to give this one a miss.
