UT Forensic Anthropology Center Presentation & Dinner

eventstatus

Join us for an Italian Buffet Dinner followed by a presentation by the UT Forensic Center Staff to learn about this unique Forensic Anthropology Center – a national leader in its field. This facility is in the forefront of using an outdoor laboratory for the study of human decomposition as well as working to assist with law enforcement and crime-solving research.

  • The Anthropology Research Facility is the first of its kind to permit systematic study of human decomposition. The 1.3 acres of land made famous by Dr. Bass recently expanded to approximately 2 acres. This addition provides space for studies using advanced technology to quantify how bodies interact with the environment.
  • The skeletal collections provide unparalleled opportunities to study modern human skeletal variation, pathology and trauma. The hallmark of these collections is the Bass Donated Skeletal Collection that now consists of over 1700 individuals, the largest collection of contemporary human skeletons in the United States.
  • The Forensic Data Bank (FDB) contains data on over 4080 forensic cases in the U.S. and has recently expanded to include contemporary individuals from Central and South America, Europe and Asia. The FDB has been instrumental in documenting changes within human populations.
