The Forensic Anthropology Center, University of Tennessee specializes in research directed to human identification and human taphonomy, service to law enforcement in recovery and identification of human remains, and education of law enforcement in areas pertaining to recovery of human remains. It is perhaps best know for its work in human decomposition research, work that has provided many new insights into the nature of human decomposition and its use in time since death estimation.
