Forensic medicine – Henrik Druid's Group

We conduct research that aims at improving the diagnostic forensic casework. We also participate in preclinical research on tissue turnover, and carry out studies on pathophysiological mechanisms behind various ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ conditions caused by disease and injury states. Several projects involve collaboration with the Swedish National Board of Forensic Medicine, and with researchers at KI and several other universities.

We are running several projects in parallel representing both basic and translational research, particularly aiming at developing methods to improve the postmortem diagnosis of severe ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ conditions.
