Noemi Procopio is a forensic scientist and Vice-Chancellor's Senior Fellow based in Northumbria University, UK. Procopio is notable for her work in taphonomy and decomposition, in particular applying proteomics to the study of bone proteins in estimating age and time of death[1][2], including for submerged corpses[3]. In 2019, Procopio was awarded a Future Leaders Fellowship by UK Research and Innovation, for her project Forens-OMICS: a cross disciplinary implementation of omics sciences to in vivo and post-mortem ageing investigations for forensic applications.[4]
