Welcome to the only website for medical students dedicated to forensic medicine. 

This subject is now rarely taught at undergraduate level (particularly in the UK) and so this site provides a unique resource for clinical forensic medicine, legal medicine and forensic pathology.

Some may find the subject matter distressing. It is not my intention to offend, but to provide educational materials for medical students (and others) - if you are likely to be offended by the subject of violent injury/death and the aftermath of such violence, please do not proceed any further. This website is not suitable for viewing by minors.
