A quick definition of forensic medicine:

Forensic medicine is when doctors and scientists use their medical knowledge to help solve legal problems. They work with lawyers and judges to figure out what happened in a situation where someone got hurt or died. It's like being a detective, but using medical facts instead of clues.

A more thorough explanation:

Forensic medicine is the study of medicine in relation to the law. It involves using medical knowledge and facts to help solve legal disputes. This is also known as medical jurisprudence.

For example, forensic medicine can be used to determine the cause of death in a criminal investigation. A forensic pathologist may examine a body and use their medical expertise to determine if the death was caused by natural causes, an accident, or a criminal act.

Another example is the use of forensic medicine in cases of sexual assault. A forensic nurse may collect evidence from the victim's body and use their medical knowledge to help determine if a sexual assault occurred and to identify the perpetrator.

Overall, forensic medicine plays an important role in the legal system by providing medical expertise to help solve legal disputes and bring justice to victims.
