Nicole Novroski

Dr. Nicole Novroski is currently an Assistant Professor in the Forensic Science Program (Dept of Anthropology) at the University of Toronto. She received her PhD in Molecular Genetics from the University of North Texas Health Science Center in 2018. As a young faculty member at the University of Toronto, Nicole moved to Canada immediately after completing her PhD under Bruce Budowle’s mentorship at the Center for Human Identification at UNTHSC in Fort Worth, Texas.  Her research focus throughout her PhD, and now as a faculty member, is DNA mixture deconvolution. Nicole is also exploring a variety of new approaches and methods for forensic DNA typing.  In her spare minutes, I spend time with her goofy great danes Hank and Earl, and sneak in a quick 5km run outside!
