Born in Edinburgh in 1797, Christison's intellectual curiosity and dedication to scientific inquiry set him apart from an early age. He would go on to become a leading figure in his field, leaving an indelible mark on the history of medicine and the law. Christison's expertise in toxicology and jurisprudence made him an invaluable asset in some of the most notorious trials of his time. He served as an expert witness in the infamous Burke and Hare trial, where he provided crucial evidence that helped bring the notorious body snatchers to justice.
