This article is part of “Dealing the Dead,” a series investigating the use of unclaimed bodies for medical research. State regulators have ordered a Texas medical school to immediately halt its practice of liquefying bodies after using them for training and research. The University of North Texas Health Science Center said in 2020 that it would renovate a Fort Worth anatomy facility, including installing two alkaline hydrolysis units. The University of North Texas Health and Science Center stopped using unclaimed bodies following NBC News' reporting. Dallas and Tarrant county officials did not immediately respond to questions about whether they agreed to allow the Health Science Center to liquefy unclaimed bodies.
