Harvard Medical School

Harvard Medical School (HMS) is a renowned institution for medical education and research. Recent news highlights several areas involving HMS. Firstly, research suggests a correlation between being a 'night owl' and potential negative impacts on heart health. Secondly, a former morgue manager at HMS was sentenced to eight years in prison for stealing and selling body parts donated for research, a scandal that has significantly damaged the school's reputation. Finally, although not directly related to HMS operations, the appointment of vaccine skeptics to the CDC advisory panel by the health secretary is tangentially relevant as it touches upon the broader scientific and medical community of which HMS is a part. These events underscore the institution's ongoing research contributions, the importance of ethical conduct within its facilities, and the broader context of scientific discourse in healthcare.
