This one runs as a masterclass: Jon Jefferson takes your colleagues through the research and the thinking behind it, with live questions throughout.
Beneath maple and oak trees on a hillside in the U.S. South, human bodies—dozens of them—decay in plain sight. They’re part of a pioneering research program at the University of Tennessee. Here at the “Body Farm”—the world’s first and foremost research laboratory of its kind—donated corpses and dedicated scientists advance the frontiers of forensics, in the cause of justice.
What happens to the body in the days, weeks, even months after death? This riveting presentation gives participants a rare look behind the secure gates of the Body Farm. Through engaging explanations and anecdotes, it brings alive the crime-solving specialty of forensic anthropology—and debunks some common misconceptions created by movies and TV.
The interactive session culminates in a baffling, real-world murder mystery that participants can help solve.
During the expert session, Jon Jefferson engages the audience through a mix of interactive exercises and Q&A using the Mentimeter app.
Gain insights into the stages of decomposition and how this knowledge advances forensic science and aids in criminal investigations.
Learn about the role of forensic anthropologists in solving crimes, including determining time and cause of death and identifying unknown victims, while debunking popular media myths.
Participate in a hands-on murder mystery to apply forensic techniques learned during the session, illustrating the real-world impact of forensic anthropology in solving crimes.
Nestled beneath the maple and oak trees on a hillside in the U.S. South lies a unique and groundbreaking research facility known as the "Body Farm" at the University of Tennessee. Here, dozens of human bodies decompose in plain sight, providing invaluable insights into the process of decay.
This pioneering program is the world’s first and foremost research laboratory dedicated to advancing the field of forensic anthropology. By studying donated corpses, scientists at the Body Farm push the boundaries of forensic science, aiding in the pursuit of justice by understanding what happens to the human body in the days, weeks, and even months after death.
This riveting presentation offers participants a rare opportunity to peek behind the secure gates of the Body Farm. Through engaging explanations and anecdotes, attendees gain a deeper understanding of forensic anthropology, the crime-solving specialty that focuses on analyzing human remains.
The session also addresses and debunks many common misconceptions popularized by movies and TV shows, providing a more accurate depiction of forensic work. Participants will learn how forensic anthropologists use their expertise to determine crucial information such as time of death, cause of death, and the identification of unknown victims, all of which are vital to solving criminal cases.
The interactive session culminates in a challenging real-world murder mystery that participants are invited to help solve. By applying the knowledge gained during the presentation, attendees will engage in hands-on problem-solving, using forensic techniques to piece together evidence and unravel the mystery.
This immersive experience not only highlights the practical applications of forensic anthropology but also underscores its critical role in the justice system. By the end of the session, participants will have a newfound appreciation for the complexities and importance of forensic science in crime-solving.
It is interactive, and the block above says exactly how for this session. Nobody has to speak up who does not want to: the chat and the polls carry most of it, and the questions can come in anonymously.
Beneath maple and oak trees on a hillside in the U.S. South, human bodies—dozens of them—decay in plain sight. It is built for a general working audience: no prior knowledge is assumed, and people who already know the subject get the research and the practical side rather than an introduction.
A masterclass. Jon Jefferson takes your colleagues through the subject and the reasoning behind it, and answers live questions. It is practical in what people take away, without the hour turning into an exercise class.
It runs 45 min / 15 min: the talk, then live questions. All you do is pick a date. We brief Jon, produce the session, host and moderate it, run the Q&A, and send you the report within an hour of the end.
A team, a department, an employee network or every single employee at once, with no cap and no per-seat price. It runs inside your own Microsoft Teams, Zoom or Google Meet, or on a branded page we build. No integration, no login, no company device or e-mail.
The session is delivered in English. You can add high accuracy live subtitles in 8, 16 or 24 languages, so everyone follows in their own. That is a paid option, priced by the number of languages you need.
No, and that is by design. There is nothing to install, nothing to integrate and no connection to your systems, so there is nothing for IT to validate: we join your own Teams, Zoom or Meet as a guest speaker, or we host a page and your people open a link. No software, no accounts, and no data of yours that we can reach. It is why hundreds of companies, among them some of the largest technology and financial firms in the world, were able to start within a day.
We never receive or hold personal data about your employees. Because the session runs in your own environment, attendance and identity stay with you, and what we report back is aggregated: numbers, ratings and survey answers, not people. That is also why IT approval usually takes minutes rather than weeks.
This one is live only. You also get attendance over time, participant ratings for the content and the speaker, the survey answers, and the topics your people asked for next.
