“The Social Life of Dead Bodies × A Name, Not a Number” is a collaborative exhibition bringing together research on migration, forensic identification, death, and disappearance.
The exhibition takes shape through two research initiatives: LABANOF - MUSA (Laboratory of Forensic Anthropology and Odontology), led by Director Professor Cristina Cattaneo at the University of Milan, featuring selected works from LABANOF - MUSA’s own exhibition, A Name, Not a Number, and the ERC-funded project The Social Life of Dead Bodies at the University of Copenhagen, in collaboration with the Department of Forensic Medicine at the University of Málaga and the Forensic Medicine Unit at the University of Crete.
