The famous forensic biologist is giving guest lectures (in German): ‘Insects on corpses’ (07.01.25); ‘Murder in the museum’ (08.01.25).



Forensic biologist DR. MARK BENECKE tackles exciting questions in a bizarre and sometimes disgusting way that you sometimes prefer not to have answered: Why, for example, are the fingernails of the bloated male corpse so long, and what kind of maggots creep out of the corner of it's mouth?

So BENECKE’s job is not death, but life after death. When the maggots unmask the murderer, he did everything right...

Follow him into a shocking and fascinating world. BENECKE’s analysis of different insects found on corpses has already helped catching countless criminals around the world. But it's easy for the viewer to turn their stomach when they look at some of the photos. Because it's not the usual pictures, it's shots of severely disfigured corpses. Only detailed close-ups can help answer the really interesting questions.
