Abstract:
Forensic medicine serves as a vital branch of medical science dedicated to aiding national and societal functions.Its longstanding application in practice and the role it plays in national governance make it evident that forensic medicine principally serves judicial and administrative bodies,earning it the moniker"State medicine".As a first-class discipline within the realm of medical sciences,forensic medicine is also a crucial part of evidential law,embodying both natural and social scientific characteristics.Over nearly a century of development,modern forensic medicine has evolved into an independent technological science discipline.Its comprehensive system encompasses forensic medicine knowledge system,academic system,disciplinary system,as well as technological system.The science and technology system of forensic medicine is inherently open,continuously interacting with other domains such as the knowledge of medicine,information science,mathematics,physics,and chemistry,which fosters a continuous influx of new insights and the adoption of interdisciplinary methods,effectively broadening the scope and depth of forensic science.Moreover,this system is characterized by its dynamism,propelled forward by the unyielding research and practical engagement of all the forensic experts.
