(Minghui.org) David Matas, a leading researcher of China's organ harvesting crimes, participated in Harvard Medical School’s Annual Bioethics Conference in Boston on April 13, 2018.

Mr. Matas is an international human rights lawyer. Since 2006, he has written extensively on the harvesting of organs from Falun Gong practitioners as part of the communist regime’s persecution of the spiritual discipline.

After Mr. Matas gave his presentation, participants had an opportunity to ask questions. Some of them were aware of transplant abuse in China and wanted to stay current on the issue.

The day before the Harvard conference, Mr. Matas also spoke to students and faculty at Wellesley College, a women’s liberal arts college located west of Boston.
