In this episode I have taken a break from hosting and my wife, Alisha has taken over as the first all-female panel takes the stage in a special edition of Forensic 4cast.
Listen to the first ladies of forensics discuss how they got into the field, as well as the challenges and perks of working in the field as a member of the fairer sex.
Sadly I forgot to put something in the episode about the LinkedIn Group. If you are a female forensicator please join the group “Women in Digital Forensics” http://www.linkedin.com/groups?home=&gid=3766181&trk=anet_ug_hm. I joined it and am now an honorary woman. Not sure how I feel about that particular moniker…
*The original file had a small problem that I have now fixed.
