Abstract

Abstract:

The development of forensic science is crucial to the national welfare, people's livelihood, social stability, and the construction of a safe China. It plays an indispensable role in the comprehensive promotion of the rule of law. The establishment of forensic science as a primary discipline, along with the transformation brought by the fifth research paradigm, makes the construction of forensic science stand at a new historical starting point. This paper reviews the current status and challenges of forensic science development, outlines the characteristics of the fifth research paradigm and its impact on the construction of forensic science, and proposes strategies for addressing these challenges.

Key words: forensic medicine, disciplinary development, fifth scientific research paradigm
