Review Description

The history of the subject of legal medicine and its institutionalization as an autonomic subject in the faculty of medicine of the Johannes Gutenberg University is closely related to the re-opening of the University in Mainz and the foundation and development of the federal state of Rheinland-Palatine. The institute developed from the first analytical steps and expert opinions, managed in a temporary wooden accommodation in the grounds of the former city hospital, to a potent institution, meeting all requirements of modern forensic science. It is embedded in the main scientific topics at the University hospital, ranked within the first third of national clinical-scientific research institutions. The protagonists of this development were the former heads of the institute Univ. Prof. Dr. Dr. K. Wagner, Univ. Prof. Dr. H. Leithoff, and Univ. Prof. Dr. C. Rittner. The Institute of Legal Medicine in Mainz was the first institute within the community of German-speaking forensic and legal institutes to be accredited and is therefore well prepared for future tasks and challenges. © 2007 Springer Medizin Verlag.
