What is Forensic Biology and how can blood spatter assist in reconstructing crime events?

In this interactive two-hour workshop with an academic and/or postgraduate ambassadors, students will develop their understanding of the role of crime scene investigation in reconstructing events. This hands-on workshop students will develop their awareness of the importance in showing clear scientific reasoning to draw valid conclusions in order to reconstruct crime scenes. Part of this process includes a prior understanding (not deep knowledge) of trigonometry.

The complexity of the explanation and content of this workshop is adapted to ensure age/stage appropriate delivery.
