Body Decomposition Workshop

Time: 1 Hour

Maximum Capacity: 30 People

Overview: What happens to a body after death? How can forensic scientists tell how long it's been since the moment of death? How can insect activity on a decomposing body help an investigation? In this workshop you'll learn all of this and more -- learn the various postmortem processes and how a real forensic scientist determines time of death. You'll see pictures and videos of various processes and use insect evidence to find an approximate postmortem interval for two dead bodies.
