you could consult the company that supplied the bodies. I bet they would take your application. Just call any medical school and they could set you up.

If you are wanting to donate your body to a particular medical school, you would contact the school directly. All the arrangements can be made prior to death. My mother donated her body to the New Jersey College of Medicine. Because we were having no viewing and a memorial service rather than a funeral, the school picked up Mom's body at the hospital at no cost to us. When the school was finished with the body, it was cremated. My parents chose to not have the ashes returned to the family.

Certainly, contact your nearest (or chosen) college that has anthropology or medicine. Ask for the cadaver coordinator. Tell them you want to donate your body under the Anatomic Gift Act. There will be paperwork you have to sign. Also, you will want to clear this with your family, as any hint of resistance from family will cause most institutions to abandon attempts to fulfill your wishes.

All medical schools in the US, and elsewhere, have an "anatomical gifts" program. If you contact the specific medical school or go to their website you will likely find a link to the people or person in charge of the program.

maybe you should visit a science lab near your place and ask someone from there what you have to do about it.
