Burning bones: A Forensic Case study on Fire

Chelsey Juarez, Ph.D. from U.C.Santa Cruz will give a presentation on the types of trauma that human bones undergo during burning. She will discuss color changes, burn patterns and fire related fractures. We will then apply our knowledge to an actual forensic anthropological case and attempt to determine who done it.
