emerged through the need for doctors to serve the Justice Administration as advisors to the Courts and Tribunals in the resolution of medical&#47;biological issues arising in the field of law enforcement&#44; establishing a bridge between medicine and law&#46; MLF started in 1843 when Pere Mata&#39;s plan to reform the teaching of Medicine at Spanish universities included MLF as an individual discipline in the studies of Medicine and Surgery&#44; and the first MLF chair was created at the <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Universidad Central</span> of Madrid&#46; Later&#44; in 1855&#44; the role of the forensic doctor was established with the enactment of the Health Law&#44;

left the specialty of MLF&#44; and the other student specialties&#44; out of the list of Health Science specialisation through the residency system&#46; It expressly mentioned in the Seventh Additional Provision that from the 2015 call for selective tests for access in 2016 no places would be offered in student training&#46;</p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In parallel&#44;

The Royal Decree has at last been drafted&#44; driven by the Ministry of Justice and the valuable collaboration of the Ministry of Health&#46; On 17 June 2011&#44; a Conference on the Health Importance of MLF was organised in Barcelona to mark Dr Pere Mata celebrating one year at Barcelona&#39;s Official College of Physicians&#46; The Conference brought together for the first time the Ministries of Justice and Health and began to study the possibility of converting the specialty of MLF into one that could be accessed through the residency system like the other health specialities&#46;

who have been comprehensively trained in the acquisition of the necessary competencies to meet the demands of society in general&#44; and in particular those of especially vulnerable and sensitive groups such as victims of gender-based violence&#44; minors and people with disabilities&#44; among others&#46; The current regulation extends the scope of action of this speciality to cover both the Justice Administration and the bodies of management and direction of hospitals&#44; as well as the public and private institutions&#46;</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The residency system for access to this degree includes theoretical and practical training over a four-year period in the accredited teaching units of the IMLCFs under the Ministry of Justice or the autonomous communities with transferred competencies in the area of justice administration&#46; This training programme&#44; which has been developed and updated by the National Commission of the Specialty of MLF after its renewal in March 2020&#44; is a mixed programme that is innovative with respect to programmes in other specialities&#44; as it establishes a training itinerary of 2 years in health teaching centres and a further 2 years in the various services of the IMLCFs&#46;</p><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The Directorate General for Professional Organisation of the Ministry of Health will be responsible for resolving applications for accreditation of IMLCFs as teaching units to provide specialist training&#46;
