Exploring the Field of Forensic Pathology

TUE 12 JANUARY, 20:00
Auditorium, Minderbroedersberg 4-6


Prof. Bela Kubat

Professor of Forensic Pathology, Maastricht University

Forensic pathology is crucially important to criminal research. We immediately think of post-mortems, which establish the cause of death. But forensic pathologists do more than that. For instance, they investigate whether a bruise is caused by a fall or by violence, and how foreign substances enter the body.

Prof. Bela Kubat (MUMC+) is a leading professor of Forensic Pathology in the Netherlands. She has years of experience as a pathologist with the Netherlands Forensic Institute, in which capacity she was involved in identifying victims of the Tsunami in 2006 and the criminal investigation into the MH17 in 2014.​
