Craniofacial Superimposition Advanced Course

With this training you will understand (in addition to all the contents of the course “Craniofacial Superimposition Crash Course”) the anatomy of the craniofacial complex and the relationships between the skull and the face. You will learn the criteria with which experts study these relationships and you will analyze correspondences on real cases with the Skeleton-ID software. You will solve cases using the craniofacial superimposition technique from start to finish, making decisions and familiarizing yourself with the expert reports. Finally, you will understand the latest advances in standardization and validation of the technique and the challenges ahead.
