Leder/Førstemanuensis

Stillingsbeskrivelse

Jeg er ansatt som førsteamanuensis og leder ved Rettsgenetisk senter, UiT Norges arktiske universitet. I hovedsak er mine arbeidsoppgaver ved Rettsgenetisk senter oppbygning av analysevirksomhet, forskning, rapportering av sakkyndige oppdrag og kvalitetssikring.

Jeg har siden 2015 vært medlem i Den rettsmedisinske kommisjon, genetisk gruppe (DRK), hvor oppgaven er å kontrollere rettsmedisinske erklæringer i rettsgenetikk
