With a career spanning over four decades in the field of forensic pathology, Dr. Kris Sperry served as a chief medical examiner for the State of Georgia and taught courses to medical students at the University of New Mexico School of Medicine. Dr. Kris Sperry maintains membership with various professional organizations including the American Academy of Forensic Sciences (AAFS).
Established in 1948, AAFS comprises over 6,600 members who specialize in different fields including medicine, law, education, and science. AAFS is committed to the accurate application and representation of scientific practices to the law. Guided by its mission, AAFS plans to launch the Academy Connect program which will serve as a platform for members and nonmember to view recorded forensic workshops online. The recordings are either in PowerPoint with voice overlay or in a video format and will be uploaded to Academy Connect after the meeting.
Presenters must sign an agreement beforehand to record their workshop. They will remain the owners of their presentations and are free to license the material or share to other forms of media. For more information about AAFS and Academy Connect, visit http://www.aafs.org.
