Institute of Forensic Medicine

The Institute of Forensic Medicine is a university institution that specifically deploys medical expertise to support the administration of justice, for example, in autopsies, toxicology, genetics, or traffic medicine. Current trends include digital procedures such as "virtopsy," victim protection clinics, and the expansion of forensic quality standards. Challenges lie in funding, interdisciplinary cooperation, and managing complex technological developments. As a key partner in teaching, research, and the justice system, it contributes significantly to education, prevention, and security.
