Dr. Mark Benecke: Insekten auf Leichen

Dr. Mark Benecke, a German forensic biologist, presents a lecture on forensic entomology in Ingolstadt. He has worked on the identification of Adolf Hitler's dental remains and the case of Colombian serial killer Luis Garavito, and his cases have been covered by National Geographic and the History Channel.

Benecke explains how insects aid criminal investigations, drawing on his experience from the Chief Medical Examiner's Office in Manhattan and his work as a freelance expert witness. He has published best-selling books on forensic biology and aging, and teaches at police academies and universities worldwide.

This event offers insight into the practical application of entomology in forensics, presented by a scientist who has contributed to Forensic Science International and the Annals of Improbable Research.
