Roles of the team and more...

Well, about our project, we have decided the roles that everyone is going to play:

Elisa: The Math expert.
Ubaldo: The Journalist
Victoria: The Media expert
Fernanda: The Forensic Scientist
Ana Leonor: character of the movie.

*Some questions:

1. What is forensic science?

Forensic science can be defined as “…any aspect of science as it relates to law”, or sections of science that can be used or “called into question in a court of law” (Murray “Forensic”).

2. What kind of evidence can be collected in a murder case?

-The murderer's DNA.
-Murdere's fingerprints on a corpse
-Some hair, or belongings of the murderer, etc.
-Also there are other intangible evidence or factors like (temperaure of the corpse, the environment, etc.)

3. Why is important to determine the time of death?

The timing is a really important factor to determine the guilt or innocence of somebody in a murder case. Since a body changes really fast as time is passing after death, is a huge clue that forensics get when they determine the time that the body has been no longer alive.

I think the main objective of this project is to introduce us into the forensics by solving criminal cases with math tools. To make us understand that the application of Mathematics is in everywhere and is really useful specially in law and investigations cases. I think this project will teach us a lot and will be really interesting to do it, hopefully with a great teamwork we will take some lessons for life and learn a lot of this branch of science.
