"The Scalpel Is Passed," A Conversation With Dr Peter Knudsen

Abstract

In this issue of "The Scalpel Is Passed," I have the pleasure of interviewing Professor Peter Knudsen, a Danish forensic pathologist with over 35 years of experience, including work as a member of the DVI team in Kosovo and Thailand. I met Professor Knudsen many years ago in Lyon at a ballistics conference. We've stayed in touch ever since, and I occasionally have the pleasure of meeting him at conferences and scientific workshops, never missing an opportunity to chat with him and benefit from his extensive and comprehensive knowledge of forensic medicine and beyond.

Keywords: ballistics; disaster victim identification; forensic pathology; interview; mentor.
