Dr Olujimi Aina

Lecturer in Forensic Science
School of Human and Social Sciences

I worked as a clinician for over five years before taking up interest in forensic science and clinical forensic medicine. My research interest is in the application of forensic science to medicine especially public health. My doctoral research in forensics combined public health and chemistry methods to explore anthropogenic-produced toxicants and adulterants in alternative health care provision especially in resource low settings. My current research collaboration has been on drug facilitated sexual assault.
