FORENSIC METHODOLOGY AND CRIMINOLOGY

Mihir Dev , 6th Course Medical student, Tashkent Medical Academy

Abstract

Forensic Methodology and criminology are related fields that focus on the investigation and analysis of crime. Forensic science applies scientific methods to the collection and analysis of evidence, while criminology studies the social and psychological aspects of crime and criminal behavior.

The complex interaction between forensic  Methodology and criminology has become a central element of the modern justice system, shedding light on complex criminal behavior and supporting the pursuit of justice. In essence, forensic science encompasses a variety of disciplines that use scientific methods to collect, analyze, and interpret evidence  from crime scenes. This analysis not only helps to accurately reconstruct the crime scene, but also helps to identify the perpetrator through techniques such as DNA analysis, ballistics, and toxicology. Criminology, on the other hand, is concerned with the psychological and sociological underpinnings of criminal behavior, seeking to understand the motives and effects of crime on society. Together, these fields create a comprehensive framework for investigating criminal activity, emphasizing the importance of scientific inquiry in the pursuit of truth and the effective implementation of legal procedures.
