We are recruiting! We are looking for members of the public (no expertise needed) to join our Citizen Jury for the ClarusEU project. All you need is your perspective. Volunteers will form part of a “citizens jury” that will feed into the pan-European Clarus project. The study, launched in 2023, has brought together research police and forensic organisations from across the continent to evaluate and improve how law enforcement and forensic scientists examine and communicate about digital evidence, without compromising impartiality. Help shape the future of #DigitalForensicsScience https://lnkd.in/eHm-Mudu
