Project FIND-EM

Forensic tooth chemistry starts with our expert techs in the lab...safety first! #projectfindem #powmia #ForensicScience

Project FIND-EM is at the Chicago Dental Society midwinter meeting this week! Visit our booth and learn how your dental practice can help with the #powmia accounting mission!

New research from our project! #forensics #isotopes #powmia

At the @RMDConline we talked with Kevin Henry from @drbicuspid...check out their new podcast on forensic dental chemistry and how dentists can help @ProjectFINDEM support @dodpaa and their mission to account for America's #powmia service members. drbicuspid.com/podcasts/artic…

We had a great time meeting the dental community at @RMDConline! Thanks to everyone who expressed support for Project FIND-EM, we really appreciate your help getting the word out to your patients. Stay tuned here for a few post-convention surprises in the coming week…

Project FIND-EM is heading to the 2024 Rocky Mtn Dental Convention! Catch us there to learn about how your dental practice can contribute to the repatriation of US POW/MIA servicemembers. @RMDConline @AmerDentalAssn

Grate presentation by @bumbanian about @ProjectFINDEM at @RenifBrasil 5° Workshop. Contribuiting to enhance the use of isotopes in forensic anthropology. Hoping to see your publications soon. 👏🙌

World Smile Day! What do you have to smile about? We're smiling about our upcoming conferences, we cann't wait to talk about our findings so far! We still need donors, so please have a look at our website for info if you or someone you know if about to get wisdom teeth removed

Unearthing the sieves for our preparation protocol. Some might be a little older than others 🥴

We’re excited to announce collaboration with the Tufts University School of Dental Medicine @TuftsDental! With their help, adults getting their wisdom teeth extracted can donate them to our research. Chemically analyzing these teeth will aid in forensic identification of POW/MIA.

"At least the machines can't take away the stories that make us human. Or can they?" Ahead of the new June @AntiquityJ issue publishing next week, there's still time to catch up with the April issue incl editorial ramblings on #AI doi.org/10.15184/aqy.2… antiquity.ac.uk

If you need to find FIND-EM's office, we're not too hard to spot 🔍

We had fun designing this brochure stand for surgery partners who want to help us collect wisdom teeth!

We're so excited to partner with dental schools and oral surgeries who have agreed to help us collect teeth! Stay tuned for updates as we work to create a database that will be used to aid in forensic identification of the remains of American POW/MIAs.

This is my poster for the #AABA2023! Sample Preparation and Analysis Standardization for Carbonate Isotopes from Tooth Enamel! github.com/SPATIAL-Lab/En…

Our Chris Stantis will have a poster on Saturday, but you can catch her chairing a session on isotopic bioarchaeology in Tuscany 3

Very cool to hear our collaborator Dr Lesley A. Chesson talk about the FIRMS network and forensic accredidation. FIRMS was founded to develop the scope of stable isotope techniques in forensic applications, you can check them out at forensic-isotopes.org

The @dodpaa and @HJFMilMed partner symposium was a great place to learn about all the projects focusing on returning our servicememebers to their families. Can't wait for the next one!
