Guest speaker
Professor Rob Fitzpatrick
Professorial Research Fellow, The University of Adelaide
Rob is the founding director of the Centre for Australian Forensic Soil Science, which is a national and international body that researches and uses earth materials such as soils, rocks, minerals and human-made mineral particles like bricks in forensic investigations to link criminals to crime scenes. Through numerous successful case studies involving cold murders, contemporary murders, rape, serious organised crime, environmental pollution and counter terrorism investigations his presentation will illustrate the power of using earth materials in criminal investigations and how this information was used as evidence in Supreme courts across Australia.
