Noemi Procopio is a forensic scientist and Research Senior Fellow based in University of Central Lancashire, UK, originally from Sommariva del Bosco in Italy.[1] 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,[2][3][4][5] including for submerged corpses.[6] 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.[7]
