Forensic Medicine and Medicolegal Studies

Criminology in Forensic Medicine is a group that focuses on the application of forensic medicine in criminal investigations. They study analytical techniques and methods related to forensic evidence, such as fingerprints, DNA, bones, and fibers, and test the validity and reliability of such evidence. They also play a role in evaluating evidence and providing expert testimony in court. The group works closely with criminologists, police, prosecutors, and judges to provide forensic evidence that can be used in court. The main goal of Criminalistics is to make an important contribution to criminal investigations by providing strong scientific evidence. Students are aimed to become experts in identifying and analyzing forensic evidence which can then be used to support law enforcement and bring perpetrators to justice. The field has an integral role in the criminal justice system, helping to ensure that evidence obtained is reliable and accurate.

Forensic Toxicology is a scientific group within the field of Forensic Medicine that focuses on detecting and analyzing chemicals or toxic substances in the human body, both intentional and unintentional, to determine their role in someone's death or injury. This group studies various analytical methods such as chromatography, spectroscopy, and microscopy to identify these substances. In addition, they also evaluate the short-term and long-term effects of these substances on the human body. This group collaborates with other forensic medical experts, such as pathologists and corpse identification experts, as well as criminal investigation and judicial teams. The goal is to provide accurate and reliable scientific evidence about the presence and role of toxic substances in forensic cases, as well as to assist in investigations, trials, and public health protection.

Forensic Odontology is a research group within Forensic Medicine that studies the application of dental science in forensic investigations. The group uses knowledge of the structure and identification of human teeth, including radiographs and dental reconstructions, to help identify victims of death or trauma. They also analyze dental impressions and bites to help determine the identity of the perpetrator or victim. In addition, the group also performs dental identification in disaster or war situations. The Forensic Odontology group works closely with other forensic medicine experts, such as pathologists and cadaver identification experts, as well as criminal investigation teams and courts. The main goal of Forensic Odontology is to provide accurate identification and assist in crime investigations or emergency situations. Students are aimed to become experts in the analysis of dental structures to aid investigations and make an important contribution to the identification of individuals. This field has a critical role in assisting investigations, especially in situations where victim identification is difficult by conventional methods.

Forensic Psychiatry is a research group within Forensic Medicine that studies the link between mental disorders and criminal behavior. They identify and evaluate mental disorders in criminal suspects and assess their state at the time of the crime. The group is also tasked with determining eligibility for trial and providing treatment recommendations in certain cases. In addition, Forensic Psychiatry also provides expert witnesses in court and assists the criminal justice system in making appropriate decisions regarding legal action against suspects with mental disorders. The main goal of Forensic Psychiatry is to provide an accurate understanding of the mental state of individuals involved in the criminal justice system. Students are aimed to become experts in providing appropriate assessments and recommendations in a legal context, which can assist in making fair and dignified legal decisions. The field has an essential role in understanding the link between mental disorders and criminal behavior, helping to assess an individual's mental capacity, and providing recommendations that can influence the course of the legal process.

Forensic Entomology is a research group within Forensic Medicine that studies the application of insects in forensic investigations. The group uses knowledge of insects to determine the interval of death, crime scene, and environmental conditions at the time of a forensic event. They study insect life cycles and how insects can be used to identify victims or perpetrators of crimes. Forensic Entomology is also used to determine if the victim's body was moved or manipulated after death. The group works closely with other forensic medicine experts, such as pathologists and coroner identification experts, as well as criminal investigation teams and courts. The main goal of Forensic Entomology is to provide an accurate scientific assessment of the time of death and body condition in forensic cases. Students are aimed to become experts in identifying and analyzing information provided by insects in forensic situations. This field has an important role in assisting investigations, especially in determining the time of death which is very relevant in criminal or disaster cases.

Forensic Anthropology is a research group within Forensic Medicine that studies the application of anthropological methods in forensic investigations. The group uses knowledge of human bones, such as gender, age, and ethnicity identification, as well as bone and skeletal trauma analysis, to help identify victims of death and understand the circumstances of their deaths. In addition, Forensic Anthropology can also be used to identify victims of genocidal crimes and past disasters. The group works closely with other forensic medicine experts, such as pathologists and cadaver identification experts, as well as criminal investigation teams and courts. The main goal of Forensic Anthropology is to provide accurate identification, provide scientific evidence of the victim's injuries or signs, and assist in the investigation of crimes. Students are aimed to become experts in the analysis of human bones and anatomical structures to support the investigation and identification of victims. This field has an important role in assisting investigations, especially in cases where victim identification is difficult using conventional methods.

Forensic Ballistics is a research group within Forensic Medicine that studies the application of physics and mathematics in criminal investigations. The group uses knowledge of firearms and ammunition to identify the weapon used in a crime, determine the distance and direction of the shot, and understand the physical condition of the victim when shot. They can also perform digital simulations to reconstruct crime scenes. Forensic Ballistics works closely with other forensic medicine experts, such as pathologists, serologists, and cadaver identification experts, as well as criminal investigation teams and courts. The main goal of Forensic Ballistics is to provide accurate scientific analysis of firearms, ammunition, and their impact on the human body. Students are aimed to become experts in interpreting ballistics evidence and providing comprehensive forensic reports. This field plays an important role in the investigation of crimes involving firearms, helping investigators and courts to understand how the crime occurred and confirm or refute witness statements.

Serology and Molecular Biology Forensics is a research group within Forensic Medicine that studies the application of laboratory techniques to identify and obtain biological information from evidence samples in forensic cases. The group uses knowledge of genetics, immunology, and biochemistry to identify the source of biological samples, such as blood, saliva, semen, and DNA. They can also generate DNA profiles from biological samples, which can be used to identify criminals and exonerate innocent people. Serology and Molecular Biology Forensics work closely with other forensic medicine experts, such as pathologists, ballistics experts, and cadaver identification experts, as well as criminal investigation teams and courts. The main goal of Forensic Serology and Molecular Biology is to provide accurate scientific analysis of biological fluids and DNA in a forensic context. Students are directed to become experts in serology and molecular biology techniques relevant to forensic investigations. This field has an important role in the investigation of crimes involving biological evidence, helping investigators and courts to understand and prove the facts associated with a crime.
