Dr Fabio Oldoni is an Assistant Professor of Forensic Science at Arcadia University. He has a Bachelor of Science degree in Biology, a Master of Science degree in Molecular Biology and Genetics from the University of Pavia, Italy and a Master of Science degree in Forensic Science from King's College London, UK. He further obtained his PhD degree in Life Sciences at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland where he worked on the development of a new genetic marker for mixture detection and deconvolution. During his PhD he also worked as Forensic DNA Analyst at the Department of Legal Medicine in Lausanne. Dr Oldoni was awarded a Postdoctoral Grant from the Swiss National Science Foundation to conduct his postdoctoral research in massively parallel sequencing of microhaplotypes for forensic applications at the George Washington University. He published in the forensic areas of bioassay development and next generation sequencing. Dr Oldoni has acted as peer-reviewer of many forensic-oriented journals since 2018 and he is a Member of the International Society for Forensic Genetics since 2015.
