Dr. Vogelsberg was a recipient of an award under NIJ’s Graduate Research Fellowship Program.
Caitlin Vogelsberg is a Postdoctoral Fellow in Forensic Anthropology at the Pima County Office of the Medical Examiner in Tucson, Arizona. She manages the agency DNA backlog, interprets DNA results, and assists in forensic anthropology casework. Caitlin earned her Ph.D. in Anthropology from Michigan State University. My dissertation research completed under the NIJ GRF directly impacted my postgraduation career plans, as it provided me with the necessary research and experience to be a competitive candidate for my postdoctoral fellowship, she says. The travel and professional meeting funding provided by the GRF allowed me to stay on top of my research and that of others in the field. This allowed me to understand the larger scope of my research and how to present it to a wider audience.
