The focus of the meeting? Research and development initiatives are set to transform the landscape of virtual autopsy at the upcoming state-of-the-art centre in Dubai.
The prestigious gathering took place at the Dubai Police HQ, where esteemed forensic specialists Dr Younis and Dr Rawdha AlShamsi , alongside representatives from VAGS and its trusted partner BIORUS, engaged in a dynamic exchange of ideas and expertise.
