Employee Comment: Anatomical Donation Program and Anatomical Materials

The University of California Office of the President invites comments on a proposed Presidential Policy on Anatomical Donation Programs and Anatomical Materials. The policy is proposed to be revised and includes the following key issues: 

  • Specifying California State Universities and Community Colleges in the allocation hierarchy
  • Clarifying existing practice whereby UC does not accept unclaimed human remains or unrepresented donors for use in education and research
  • Replacing an approval process with an informational training
  • Updating definitions, links and personnel designations

The proposed revisions may be viewed at https://ucanr.edu/site/policy-compliance-and-programmatic-agreements/systemwide-policy-revisions-employee-comments

If you have any questions or if you wish to comment, please contact Rachel Lloyd at rjlloyd@ucanr.edu, no later than March 20, 2026. Please indicate “Responding to ADP” in the subject line.
