Help Honor Those That Gave
As future healthcare professionals currently pursuing our education at Drexel University, we are deeply aware that our education is built not only on textbooks and lectures, but on an act of generosity. These donors made a selfless and profoundly meaningful decision. Their contributions have given us a foundation of knowledge of how we will serve our communities with skill, empathy, and integrity. We are raising funds to honor these individuals, not only to express our gratitude, but to ensure that their legacy is remembered with dignity and respect it deserves.
Donated funds will be used for a memorial gift to honor those who donated their bodies to our education and assist with educational resource needs. DONATION LINK IN BIO

This hand-crocheted skeleton by Health & Rehabilitation Sciences PhD student Lauren Braccili is seriously bone-chilling impressive 💀🧶
Just like her research, it’s all about what lies beneath, exploring the passive mechanics of muscle and how structure supports function.
From stitches to science, it’s all about finding strength and stability in the right places.
What should we name him?

Drexel DPT students got their hands dirty for a great cause 🌱🙌
In partnership with the Office of University and Community Partnerships, they took part in the 2026 Earth Day Volunteer Event—supporting urban green spaces throughout West Philadelphia. With perfect weather on their side, students connected with neighbors while helping local farms and gardens prepare for the growing season.

It was so great to have our Health and Rehabilitation Sciences PhD program representing at the American Society of Biomechanics East Coast Regional Meeting hosted by the University of Delaware. Our students and faculty had the opportunity to share their work, engage in thoughtful discussions, and connect with colleagues from across the region. Thank you to everyone who presented, attended, and supported this experience!
