【摘要】 法医学是为国家社会应用医学。集千百年法医学之应用实践及所发挥的国家治理功能，法医学的服务对象是国家司法机关、行政机关，因此，法医学是“国家医学”。法医学既是医学学科门类中的一级学科，也是证据法学的重要组成部分，具有自然科学兼社会科学属性。经过近一个世纪的发展，现代法医学已成为独立的技术科学学科，其科学技术体系包括法医学知识体系、学术体系、学科体系和技术体系。法医学科学技术体系是开放的，与其他医学知识、信息科学知识、数理化知识要有往来，不断地吸取营养、交叉融合，不断拓展法医学的知识边界；这一体系又是发展的，在全体法医人不断研究和技术实践的活动中发展进步。更多还原

【Abstract】 Forensic medicine serves as a vital branch of medical science dedicated to aiding national and societal functions. Its longstanding application in practice and the role it plays in national governance make it evident that forensic medicine principally serves judicial and administrative bodies, earning it the moniker "State medicine". As a first-class discipline within the realm of medical sciences, forensic medicine is also a crucial part of evidential law, embodying both natural and social scientific characteristics. Over nearly a century of development, modern forensic medicine has evolved into an independent technological science discipline. Its comprehensive system encompasses forensic medicine knowledge system, academic system, disciplinary system, as well as technological system. The science and technology system of forensic medicine is inherently open, continuously interacting with other domains such as the knowledge of medicine,information science, mathematics, physics, and chemistry, which fosters a continuous influx of new insights and the adoption of interdisciplinary methods, effectively broadening the scope and depth of forensic science. Moreover, this system is characterized by its dynamism, propelled forward by the unyielding research and practical engagement of all the forensic experts.更多还原
