An evening with the Journal of Photography & Culture.
This year-long Writing Photography series investigates different approaches, both creative and academic, to writing about photography.
Drawing on examples, this talk discusses the role the photograph plays in defining forensic science; the influence it can have in the application of justice; and the impact of forensic images in the media.
This talk hopes to provide an interesting exploration of this under-discussed area of the medico-legal context.
Dr Tim Thompson is Senior Lecturer in Crime Scene Science in the School of Science & Engineering, Teesside University. Thompson has published and edited peer-reviewed journals and books on a range of subjects. He is a practicing forensic anthropologist who has worked at home and abroad in a variety of forensic contexts.
