Abstract:

In recent years, biotechnology is gradually getting popular and is playing a significant role in human productivity and life. The consequent biosafety problems are becoming increasingly prominent. Based on the connotation and extension of biosafety, this article sorts out the biosafety contents involved in traditional and modern forensic medicine research and analyzes the risks and challenges facing forensic medicine research from the perspective of biosafety. Based on the protection of legal medical experts, the establishment of working standards, and the promotion and support of research in forensic medicine on biosafety field and other aspects, this article discusses the prospectives of forensic medicine research from a biosafety point of view, and provides the insights and references for a smooth implementation of forensic medicine practice in the future.

Key words: biosafety, forensic medicine, technological development
