      Hi Libby! None – this would be the role of a forensic pathologist. They are highly specialised doctors who have received additional training in forensics. I would have loved to follow this path but unfortunately I couldn’t commit to junior doctor work rotas with two young children. I have to watch programmes like silent witness instead!

      None because I am not a forensic pathologist.
