Interview #29 | Dr Robert Green OBE, JP (Forensic Scientist)

I welcome forensic scientist Robert (Bob) Green to the show in this interview episode.⁣


Bob worked for the Forensic Science Service (FSS) in research and service development before moving to the Home Office to become the head of science and technology in the Police and Crime Standards Directorate.


He was at the forefront of ensuring the most effective use of forensic science to combat crime and develop knowledge around applying forensic science and policing tools to support the investigation of violent and acquisitive crimes.


He is noted for developing and leading the national programme of cold case review – Operation Advance – and being a national and international speaker on developing DNA and other biometric databases.


For his services to forensic science, Bob was awarded an OBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours list of 2008.


Nowadays, Bob is a Reader in Forensic Science and Director of Student Engagement at the University of Kent for the School of Chemistry and Forensic Science.
