Professor Mihail Paschkaunu, Roumanian professor and former liberal deputy who died here, bequeathed his body to Jewish medical students for dissection.
In his will the professor directed his son to give his body to the Jewish medical students as a sign that science is the highest truth. He requests his son to cultivate only one religion, the religion of history and human love without discrimination as to creed.
