Forensic anthropology is the application of physical anthropology and human osteology in a legal setting, usually criminal cases. Forensic anthropologists can help identify unknown human remains and provide evidence in cases of mass disasters. They use skeletal analysis to determine a person's identity, cause of death, and any signs of injury present on the bones.

Forensic anthropology
Forensic anthropology studies the human skeleton to determine characteristics like age, sex, stature, and ancestry from skeletal remains. Techniques were developed in the early 20th century to aid in the identification of unknown remains. Examination of bones can reveal injuries, medical conditions and cause of death. Differences in bone development, fusion, and structure between males and females and across age groups allow for the determination of these characteristics.

Forensic anthropology
Forensic anthropology is the application of anthropological knowledge and techniques in a legal context. It involves using detailed knowledge of osteology to aid in identifying skeletal remains and determining the cause of death. Most forensic anthropologists are university professors who assist with casework and consult for government agencies like medical examiner offices and labs.
Scope of Forensic Anthropology
Forensic anthropologists apply their expertise in physical anthropology to legal investigations. Their work includes identifying human remains, estimating age, sex, stature and ancestry to create a biological profile. They also analyze trauma to determine cause and manner of death. Forensic anthropologists help in mass disasters by separating and identifying commingled remains. They also use their archaeological skills to locate buried evidence at crime scenes. Anthropometry, the systematic measurement of the human body, is another tool used for individual identification in forensic investigations.
7 Forensic Science Powerpoint Chapter 07 Forensic Anthropology
The document discusses the role and techniques of forensic anthropology. It covers how forensic anthropologists examine human remains to develop a biological profile of victims and help with identification. They assess bones for characteristics like age, sex, ancestry and compare to records. Forensic anthropologists also study taphonomy and trauma to reconstruct events. Their expertise complements forensic pathologists in investigations.
Forensic Anthrpology
Anthropology is the systematic study of humankind. Forensic anthropology involves the examination of human remains to identify individuals and determine cause of death. It can provide biological profiles, help distinguish trauma timing, and match remains to missing persons cases. New applications include using 2D images to identify suspects, 3D facial modeling, and assessing images for age in legal cases.
Hurricane irma risk analysis
Regions of Florida most at risk from Hurricane Irma include southeast coastal areas like Miami due to projected strong winds, heavy rainfall and storm surge that could cause flooding in densely populated low-lying areas. Maps of Florida's elevation, population density and Irma's projected path and impacts indicate southern regions are most vulnerable to the hurricane's dangers.

Eradication of Malaria from Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka has made extraordinary progress in eliminating malaria, reducing cases from over 500,000 in the early 20th century to just 17 reported cases in 2015. However, malaria elimination faces ongoing challenges, as imported malaria from travelers and migrants is increasing. Sustaining malaria elimination requires continued vigilance, such as ensuring all cases are properly treated according to guidelines, conducting case investigation and response, and preparedness for potential outbreaks. Cooperation with neighboring countries is also important to address the ongoing risk of imported malaria hampering elimination efforts.

Evaluating the impact of HIV/AIDS from the local to international levels
Within South Africa, HIV/AIDS prevalence is more than 18% in two of its districts and more than 14% nationally. It is a major cause of death in South Africa, where life expectancy has dropped from 64 years to 56 years from 1990 to 2017 due to HIV/AIDS. The epidemic heavily affects other countries in southern Africa as well. UNAIDS data shows that HIV prevalence in South Africa has stabilized in recent years after a major decline, but the disease continues to have significant economic and social impacts.

HIV/AIDS has had significant geographic impacts across local, national, and international scales in South Africa. At the local level, the disease has disproportionately affected the poor and black populations due to factors like poverty, lack of education, and sexual violence. Nationally, South Africa has seen its life expectancy drop dramatically and around 10% of its population is HIV positive, putting strain on healthcare resources. Internationally, HIV/AIDS has reduced life expectancy in many African countries and is now the fourth leading cause of death globally, with an estimated 36 million people infected worldwide mostly in developing areas.

The document examines the geographic factors responsible for the spread of HIV/AIDS in South Africa. It discusses trends in HIV prevalence over time as well as patterns across regions. Socio-cultural factors like apartheid, stigma, and gender inequality increased women's vulnerability and reduced access to services. Politically, former President Mbeki downplayed the epidemic. Economically, prevention was prioritized over treatment due to costs. Overall, the document analyzes how geography, socio-cultural issues, politics, and economics contributed to HIV/AIDS in South Africa with prevention emphasized more than treatment.

Wound healing PPT
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
