Age assessment in forensic context is important both for the dead and the living. For the dead it is
a required step in constructing a biological profile, which can then be compared to missing
persons. For the living it is essential to determine whether an individual is an adult or child when
there are doubts about the claimed age. Knowing someone’s age and identity is important to solve
questions of adoption, imputability, pedopornography, child labor, and illegal immigration.
Prof. Cameriere will provide an overview of anthropological and dental methods for age
determination in living. In the afternoon session students will gain experience putting in practice
their knowledge.
Invited by: Stefania Luciani
