Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Forensic Sciences are constantly being updated, with new forensic investigation techniques constantly developing. Over the last 20 years, we have seen a substantial evolution in immunohistochemistry, but today genetic investigation and molecular autopsy are also increasingly developing and growing. Think, for example, of the techniques used to study the post-mortem interval (PMI), which increasingly sees the use of new markers. Another example could be the use of miRNAs in Forensic Pathology.
As Guest Editor, I would like to encourage you to submit research articles or comprehensive reviews to offer an overview of the possible applications of new forensic pathology techniques.
Prof. Dr. Massimiliano Esposito
Guest Editor
