[385] Forensic anthropologist is on the case on ‘MTSU On the Record’


MURFREESBORO — The next edition of the “MTSU On the Record” radio program will take a look at professional development opportunities for law enforcement personnel.

Host Gina Logue’s interview with Dr. Hugh Berryman will air from 5:30 to 6 p.m. Monday, April 6, and from 8 to 8:30 a.m. Sunday, April 12, on WMOT-FM (89.5 and www.wmot.org).

Berryman, a research professor and forensic anthropologist, will explain several upcoming workshops under the auspices of MTSU’s Forensic Institute for Research and Education.

These workshops offer instruction in tracking individuals, investigating death scenes, skeletal recovery, blood pattern analysis and mental health.

“We try to have people here that are established in the area that they’re going to be lecturing on,” said Berryman. “They’re well-known and we’ve had fair success at having some people that are internationally known.”

In addition, MTSU will host the 2015 Middle Tennessee Cyber Summit in the Student Union Ballroom Tuesday, May 5, with the theme of “Safeguarding Identities and Emerging Threats.”
