Education

At our core is the study of human anatomy and this is dependent on the relationship we maintain with those who bequeath their remains to the University for the purposes of education and research. We were the first in the UK to introduce the Thiel soft fix approach to embalming and our research has resulted in new and improved surgical procedures and the design and development of new medical technologies and surgical devices.

Research

CAHID is an award winning research centre whose staff are both REF returned and responsible for REF impact case studies. Spanning anatomy, forensic anthropology and forensic science, CAHID has a vibrant and exciting research focus and reach. Our anatomy research provides critical input into areas of surgical skill development and fundamental anatomical processes. Our forensic based research generates new knowledge which positively impacts on operational forensic science practice and policy development. Our current cohort of over 25 research students come from all over the World and include a mixture of part time and full time researchers many of whom are themselves practitioners.

Career

In forensic science we work with the police and other investigative agencies to assist with both national and international crimes, aiming to establish truth and bring perpetrators to justice. The CAHID team comprises certified experts in several forensic disciplines and has strong relationships with Police forces throughout the UK. Our staff regularly present evidence in criminal courts and many of these cases are of extremely high profile. Over 400 forensic enquiries are made to our practitioners every year from police forces across the UK and from further afield.
