Royal Institution Christmas Lectures
The Royal Institution Christmas Lectures are a series of lectures on a single topic, which have been held at the Royal Institution in London each year since 1825, missing 1939–42 due to the Second World War. The lectures present scientific subjects to a general audience, including young people, in an informative and entertaining manner. Michael Faraday initiated the first Christmas Lecture series in 1825. This came at a time when organised education for young people was scarce. Faraday presented a total of nineteen series in all.
History
The Royal Institution's Christmas Lectures were first held in 1825, and have continued on an annual basis since then with the exception of during the Second World War. They are hosted each year at the Royal Institution itself, with the exception of during 1929 and between 2005–2006, each time due to refurbishment of the building. They were created by Michael Faraday, and he went on to host the lecture season on nineteen occasions. Other notable lecturers have included Richard Dawkins, Heinz Wolff, Sir David Attenborough, George Porter, Nancy Rothwell and Carl Sagan. The hosts of the lectures have been predominantly male, with only six female lecturers hosting the events since their inception.

Sue Black - The History of Forensic Anthropology - Perhaps it is Really Forensic Anatomy
Speaker: Professor Sue Black, University of Dundee Forensic anthropology has a relatively long history in the USA but is a more recent addition in the UK. However, just a shallow scratch below the surface of this modern discipline shows that it is firmly rooted within human anatomy. This talk charts the history of forensic anthropology in the UK and illustrate its constant links back to so many aspects of applied anatomy that we might be forgiven for thinking that it has been incorrectly named.

The Anatomy of Identity. A life of 7? | Sue Black | TEDxUniversityofDundee

Sue covers this matter and goes even further in exploring the caveats of the somatic form of the body bearing testimony to our actions, in line with Theseus' paradox. However, coming up with the ultimate infallible biometric is not really the issue, as you will find out in this fascinating talk. Professor Sue Black is Director of the Centre for Anatomy and Human Identification in Dundee, and Deputy Principal. She is a forensic anthropologist and an anatomist, founder and past President of the British Association for Human Identification, and advisor to the Home Office and Interpol on issues pertaining to forensic anthropology in disaster vic...

Professor Dame Sue Black DBE is a forensic anthropologist, anatomist and academic and is currently the President of St John’s College Oxford, and Visiting Professor of Computing and Communications at Lancaster University, having previously been Pro-Vice Chancellor at Lancaster University.
She attended the University of Aberdeen where she graduated with a BSc degree with honours in human anatomy in 1982, and a PhD degree for her thesis on 'Identification from the Human Skeleton' in 1986.
Having been a lecturer in Anatomy at St Thomas' Hospital between 1987 and 1992, Sue then spent a decade working for the UK's Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and the United Nations, on the identification of victims and perpetrators of various conflicts. In 1999 she became the lead forensic anthropologist to the British Forensic Team in Kosovo and in 2003 she undertook two tours to Iraq. In 2005 Sue participated in the United Kingdom's contribution to the Thai Tsunami Victim Identification operation as part of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami international response.
Sue has been an innovator in developing techniques and building databases to confirm or disconfirm someone's identify identity based on photographs of their hands or arms. This technique has become important in prosecution cases where the accused have taken photographs of their actions. In 2009, Sue used vein pattern analysis to confirm the identify of a suspect; the first time that the technique was used in a criminal conviction.
As an author, Sue has published numerous works including her latest book, ‘Written in bone: Hidden stories in what we leave behind’. She was a founder of The British Association for Human Identification and The British Association for Forensic Anthropology; has been elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, The Royal Anthropological Institute and The British Academy; and is life-time Professor of Anatomy for the Royal Scottish Academy.
Sue is married with three children and features in a larger-than-life portrait by Ken Currie titled Unknown Man which hangs in the National Galleries of Scotland in Edinburgh, while crime writer Val McDermid used Sue as inspiration for a character in her book ‘The skeleton road’.

Speaker: Professor Sue Black, University of Dundee
Forensic anthropology has a relatively long history in the USA but is a more recent addition in the UK. However, just a shallow scratch below the surface of this modern discipline shows that it is firmly rooted within human anatomy.
This talk charts the history of forensic anthropology in the UK and illustrate its constant links back to so many aspects of applied anatomy that we might be forgiven for thinking that it has been incorrectly named.

Identity is explored from the perspectives of your close relatives and of authority. What is a fool-proof form of identity which is immune to fraud? Sue covers this matter and goes even further in exploring the caveats of the somatic form of the body bearing testimony to our actions, in line with Theseus' paradox. However, coming up with the ultimate infallible biometric is not really the issue, as you will find out in this fascinating talk.
Professor Sue Black is Director of the Centre for Anatomy and Human Identification in Dundee, and Deputy Principal. She is a forensic anthropologist and an anatomist, founder and past President of the British Association for Human Identification, and advisor to the Home Office and Interpol on issues pertaining to forensic anthropology in disaster victim identification (DVI). She was awarded an OBE in 2001 for her services to forensic anthropology in Kosovo, the Lucy Mair medal for humanitarian services, a police commendation for DVI training in 2008, Hon Prof of Anatomy for the Royal Scottish Academy in 2014 and the Fletcher of Saltoun award for her contribution to Scottish culture also in 2014. She was awarded both the Brian Cox and the Stephen Fry awards for public engagement with research and in 2013 her Centre was awarded the Queen’s Anniversary Prize for Higher and Further Education. Her research was shortlisted for the Times Higher Education research project of the year.

Pre-eminent Forensic Anthropologist, Professor Dame Sue Black talks to Glasgow Science Centre about her life, experiences and interests. In this interview, the author of "All That Remains: A Life in Death", tells us about an average day in her extraordinary life. She goes back to her childhood to tell us about what it was that got her into her line of work. Sue picks out the most rewarding point in her career and some of the toughest. Sue explains how she keeps a distance from the often harrowing circumstances thrown-up by her work and describes how popular culture's fascination with forensic science - whilst peaking the human interest - often stretches into the realms of fantasy. This is the first part in a set of three interviews with Prof. Sue Black. The second explores her thoughts ...

Professor Dame Sue Black DBE is a forensic anthropologist, anatomist and academic and is currently the President of St John’s College Oxford, and Visiting Professor of Computing and Communications at Lancaster University, having previously been Pro-Vice Chancellor at Lancaster University.
She attended the University of Aberdeen where she graduated with a BSc degree with honours in human anatomy in 1982, and a PhD degree for her thesis on 'Identification from the Human Skeleton' in 1986.
Having been a lecturer in Anatomy at St Thomas' Hospital between 1987 and 1992, Sue then spent a decade working for the UK's Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and the United Nations, on the identification of victims and perpetrators of various conflicts. In 1999 she became the lead forensic anthropologist to the British Forensic Team in Kosovo and in 2003 she undertook two tours to Iraq. In 2005 Sue participated in the United Kingdom's contribution to the Thai Tsunami Victim Identification operation as part of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami international response.
Sue has been an innovator in developing techniques and building databases to confirm or disconfirm someone's identify identity based on photographs of their hands or arms. This technique has become important in prosecution cases where the accused have taken photographs of their actions. In 2009, Sue used vein pattern analysis to confirm the identify of a suspect; the first time that the technique was used in a criminal conviction.
As an author, Sue has published numerous works including her latest book, ‘Written in bone: Hidden stories in what we leave behind’. She was a founder of The British Association for Human Identification and The British Association for Forensic Anthropology; has been elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, The Royal Anthropological Institute and The British Academy; and is life-time Professor of Anatomy for the Royal Scottish Academy.
Sue is married with three children and features in a larger-than-life portrait by Ken Currie titled Unknown Man which hangs in the National Galleries of Scotland in Edinburgh, while crime writer Val McDermid used Sue as inspiration for a character in her book ‘The skeleton road’.

Speaker: Professor Sue Black, University of Dundee
Forensic anthropology has a relatively long history in the USA but is a more recent addition in the UK. However, just a shallow scratch below the surface of this modern discipline shows that it is firmly rooted within human anatomy.
This talk charts the history of forensic anthropology in the UK and illustrate its constant links back to so many aspects of applied anatomy that we might be forgiven for thinking that it has been incorrectly named.

Pre-eminent Forensic Anthropologist, Professor Dame Sue Black talks to Glasgow Science Centre about her life, experiences and interests.
In this interview, the author of "All That Remains: A Life in Death", tells us about an average day in her extraordinary life. She goes back to her childhood to tell us about what it was that got her into her line of work. Sue picks out the most rewarding point in her career and some of the toughest.
Sue explains how she keeps a distance from the often harrowing circumstances thrown-up by her work and describes how popular culture's fascination with forensic science - whilst peaking the human interest - often stretches into the realms of fantasy.
This is the first part in a set of three interviews with Prof. Sue Black. The second explores her thoughts on STEM, equality and celebrity, and the third on the need to disrupt science.

Professor Dame Sue Black DBE is a forensic anthropologist, anatomist and academic and is currently the President of St John’s College Oxford, and Visiting Professor of Computing and Communications at Lancaster University, having previously been Pro-Vice Chancellor at Lancaster University.
She attended the University of Aberdeen where she graduated with a BSc degree with honours in human anatomy in 1982, and a PhD degree for her thesis on 'Identification from the Human Skeleton' in 1986.
Having been a lecturer in Anatomy at St Thomas' Hospital between 1987 and 1992, Sue then spent a decade working for the UK's Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and the United Nations, on the identification of victims and perpetrators of various conflicts. In 1999 she became the lead forensic anthropologist to the British Forensic Team in Kosovo and in 2003 she undertook two tours to Iraq. In 2005 Sue participated in the United Kingdom's contribution to the Thai Tsunami Victim Identification operation as part of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami international response.
Sue has been an innovator in developing techniques and building databases to confirm or disconfirm someone's identify identity based on photographs of their hands or arms. This technique has become important in prosecution cases where the accused have taken photographs of their actions. In 2009, Sue used vein pattern analysis to confirm the identify of a suspect; the first time that the technique was used in a criminal conviction.
As an author, Sue has published numerous works including her latest book, ‘Written in bone: Hidden stories in what we leave behind’. She was a founder of The British Association for Human Identification and The British Association for Forensic Anthropology; has been elected as a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, The Royal Anthropological Institute and The British Academy; and is life-time Professor of Anatomy for the Royal Scottish Academy.
Sue is married with three children and features in a larger-than-life portrait by Ken Currie titled Unknown Man which hangs in the National Galleries of Scotland in Edinburgh, while crime writer Val McDermid used Sue as inspiration for a character in her book ‘The skeleton road’.

“I was shocked by the story of you boarding a plane with two human heads.”
Author Damian Barr speaks to world-renowned forensic anthropologist Professor Dame Sue Black about her work, as she explains a process called a 'facial superimposition' - and how she had to carry a rather unsavoury package back from Italy, to carry one out.

Speaker: Professor Sue Black, University of Dundee
Forensic anthropology has a relatively long history in the USA but is a more recent addition in the UK. However, just a shallow scratch below the surface of this modern discipline shows that it is firmly rooted within human anatomy.
This talk charts the history of forensic anthropology in the UK and illustrate its constant links back to so many aspects of applied anatomy that we might be forgiven for thinking that it has been incorrectly named.

Identity is explored from the perspectives of your close relatives and of authority. What is a fool-proof form of identity which is immune to fraud? Sue covers this matter and goes even further in exploring the caveats of the somatic form of the body bearing testimony to our actions, in line with Theseus' paradox. However, coming up with the ultimate infallible biometric is not really the issue, as you will find out in this fascinating talk.
Professor Sue Black is Director of the Centre for Anatomy and Human Identification in Dundee, and Deputy Principal. She is a forensic anthropologist and an anatomist, founder and past President of the British Association for Human Identification, and advisor to the Home Office and Interpol on issues pertaining to forensic anthropology in disaster victim identification (DVI). She was awarded an OBE in 2001 for her services to forensic anthropology in Kosovo, the Lucy Mair medal for humanitarian services, a police commendation for DVI training in 2008, Hon Prof of Anatomy for the Royal Scottish Academy in 2014 and the Fletcher of Saltoun award for her contribution to Scottish culture also in 2014. She was awarded both the Brian Cox and the Stephen Fry awards for public engagement with research and in 2013 her Centre was awarded the Queen’s Anniversary Prize for Higher and Further Education. Her research was shortlisted for the Times Higher Education research project of the year.

Pre-eminent Forensic Anthropologist, Professor Dame Sue Black talks to Glasgow Science Centre about her life, experiences and interests.
In this interview, the author of "All That Remains: A Life in Death", tells us about an average day in her extraordinary life. She goes back to her childhood to tell us about what it was that got her into her line of work. Sue picks out the most rewarding point in her career and some of the toughest.
Sue explains how she keeps a distance from the often harrowing circumstances thrown-up by her work and describes how popular culture's fascination with forensic science - whilst peaking the human interest - often stretches into the realms of fantasy.
This is the first part in a set of three interviews with Prof. Sue Black. The second explores her thoughts on STEM, equality and celebrity, and the third on the need to disrupt science.
