Auditorium Presentations

The Adventures in Medicine and Science program at Saint Louis University is getting ready to kick off its 2025-2026 Auditorium Program Schedule.

High-School Programming

The Human Reproductive System with Lindsay Lombardo, D.O.

  • An engaging, in-depth exploration of both reproductive systems using real cadaver specimens on stage — a rare opportunity for students to see authentic anatomical structures up close. Guided by health care professionals who break down complex concepts into clear, age-appropriate explanations, students will learn about both the male and female reproductive systems and have the chance to ask questions in real time for a truly interactive experience.
  • Hands-on programming offered following: Cadaver demonstration and sheep brain dissection

Demonstration of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair: A Surgical Demonstration with Michael Williams, M.D.

  • Join us for a front-row seat as Saint Louis University School of Medicine's very own Michael Williams, M.D., takes us step by step through an abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. This live interactive surgical demonstration will be one that you won't want to miss! Please note that the doctor does use a cadaver for this demonstration. 
  • Hands-on programming offered following: Cadaver demonstration and pig heart dissection

Medicolegal Forensic Autopsy

  • The word autopsy is formed from two Greek words: autos and optos, which mean "self" and "seen" respectively. Thus, autopsy means "the act of seeing with one's own eyes." It is commonly known as a postmortem examination. A medicolegal autopsy or forensic autopsy is done in deaths due to unnatural causes and in natural cases also, where the cause of death is not certain. The aim and objectives of the medicolegal autopsy are to help the law enforcement agencies to ascertain the identity of the deceased, cause of death, type of weapon used, time since death, manner of death and to collect any trace evidence that might be present. Join the AIMS program in welcoming the Saint Louis University Department of Forensic Science in what is sure to be an auditorium program you won't want to miss!
