What We Do
The FAR.lab engages faculty and students in supporting our community in any scope of the forensic sciences.
We are particularly engaged in contributing to the search and recovery of deceased migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border for the purpose of identification. Contributing to give closure to families is our goal.
We do research in several fields of Biological Anthropology, in particularly forensic Anthropology and Forensic Anthropology. We focus on the broad scope of skeletal biology.
